The Woolmark Company’s Madden and Start VR’s Stevens will discuss VR and the results of campaigns they have executed
Virtual reality will also be a significant talking point at Mumbrella360. Damian Madden, global digital manager at The Woolmark Company will join managing director of Start VR, Angus Stevens, to reveal how they created an interactive fashion photoshoot that took users right inside the garments themselves. They will also discuss the results and how these learnings have influenced their thoughts on the future of VR and innovation in the fashion space.
Social video’s growth, engagement and loyalty will be debated in the first of two panels just announced. Liz Ferguson, managing director of Kin Community Australia, will be joined by YouTube creator, Tina Yong, group content strategy director at Nine, Lizzie Young, Neil Ackland, the CEO and founder at Junkee Media, and Rick Matthews, head of international at Kin Community.
Kin Community’s Ferguson will lead a panel discussing social video and its impact on marketing
The panel will focus on the perception and worth of video reach and engagement, how social video is speaking to younger audiences and how native video creators are using their authentic connections to grow global businesses.
In the other confirmed panel, John Ford, CEO of The One Centre, will discuss whether the startup and innovation economy is forgetting marketing and advertising. He’ll be joined by Nick Miller, investment director at Blue Sky Equity, Rebecca Shears, CMO of OFX and Chris Gillespie, the co-founder of Arenberg.
The One Centre’s Ford will lead a panel looking into why startups are not spending more on marketing
The rise of high-growth, knowledge-intensive businesses presents an unprecedented opportunity for the marcomms industry. Yet of the $1bn invested to support new products going to market, just a fraction is spent on branding and marketing. Ford and company will attempt to get to the bottom of why this is and what can be done about it.
Disruption will take centre stage again in a session revealing exclusive research on the most authentic brands in Australia. Wayde Bull, founding partner of Principals, will present the 2018 findings of the Brand Alpha study.
