Can Africa lead the global creative revolution?
Covering the following key issues:
• Consistency & skills in the African markets – do we have them, how do we up-skill and be
on par with global trends or are we already leading?
• What are global clients looking for in the African media landscape?
• What should lead client campaigns – creativity or strategy?
• What are the current “Digitalization” (integrated) methods we are seeing in Africa?
• What tools are needed to ensure we are able to lead instead of follow?
