Overview

This year we will be teaming up with Tony Koenderman’s well-regarded BRAINSTORM Conference in Cape Town and Johannesburg.

The rallying cry of the Brainstorm is “Catch a Wake-Up!”  The brainstorm ties in perfectly with being BIG IN DIGITAL as the session will focus on the new integrated environment, where traditional and digital media combine to deliver a seamless message at every possible touch-point with the consumer.
