Fifth Thought Leadership Digibate on marketing, media trends to be in Joburg

"It is always important to evaluate where we are at when it comes to forecasting trends, especially considering the media marketing sector is so dynamic," says Dawn Rowlands, CEO Sub Saharan Africa, Aegis Media, who will moderate the session.

Panelists will discuss and debate the five key areas in the marketing and media sector.

Topics:

• A global perspective on trends and how they influence us in Africa
  
• African digital trends
  
• From 2011 to 2012 - It's not rocket science so how did we still get it wrong?
  
• Consumers are now brand transmittors and actually control your brand - what are the trends and how can you be ahead of the curve as opposed to being behind them?
  
• Trend setters and surfers - what trends are being witnessed and reported on via the media and why?

More details will be announced soon.
