madtech - ad land meets tech city
DESCRIPTION
There is a unique opportunity for the London Marketing and Tech communities to come together to play a defining role in the future of advertising and customer engagement by leveraging the creative talent that exists on both sides to take advantage of the emerging technological, social and cultural trends. A new mentality and approach is needed from both the established digital advertising / media community and entrepreneurs to build greater collaboration and enable startups to access and leverage marketing expertise and resources.TRANSCRIPT
