NETWORKING BREAKFAST (9:00AM – 9:45AM)

INTRODUCTIONS (9:45AM – 10:00AM)


I. The Return on Relationships
  (10:00AM – 10:50AM)
Content typically does not compete with traditional advertising on standard ROI measures. But in this post-advertising world, where relevance is the name of the game, it is far more valuable in building long-term customer relationships. How do we drive the industry to think about ROI on content in a new way?  And how do we infuse content strategy as a critical component throughout the communication planning process? 

Speaker:
Lou Paskalis, 
Senior Vice President, Enterprise Media Planning, Investment and Measurement Executive, Bank of America 


COFFEE BREAK (10:50AM – 11:10AM)


II. Recoding Culture (11:10AM – 12:00PM)
Digital humanism is a philosophical and ethical stance that emphasizes the value and agency of human beings through technological innovation.  As the world gets more digital, we look for experiences that are more real, more meaningful, and have great depth. Learn how the recoding of culture inspires virality and how content brings out the humanity in all of us.

Speaker: 
Edwin Wong, 
VP, Research & Insights, BuzzFeed
