Content is undoubtedly essential. Attendees come to events to learn, be inspired, and gain new insights. But, without an engaging brand experience, even the most compelling content may fall flat. The brand experience is the context in which content is delivered, and it sets the tone for how attendees perceive the content.

Hugo Dawson, Creative Strategy Director, Brands at Work
Engaging audiences is really hard. Different objectives, audience types, contexts, channels – thrown into a pot, what often emerges is a nebulous blob of muddled messages, podium parades, forgettable media, and death by PowerPoint. This session discovers how to connect brands to their audiences in ways that are strategically aligned, creatively disruptive, and which genuinely shift the needle – across multi-channel comms, events, and learning & development programmes. It starts with a clean sheet of paper, putting message before medium, and always challenging the rules.
