6.30PM - DOORS OPEN

7.30PM - 8.00PM - Simon Bennett,Content and Communications Manager, Sitecore, Presentation:What can marketers learn from fairy-tales?

Fairy-tales are great examples of legendary story-telling. Using these tales, we now ask – what would have changed if these characters were living in today's digital world? Would the story be radically different, would Red Riding Hood's granny still have been eaten by the wolf? What can marketers learn from the changes that digital is having on brand story-telling – and will your brand live digitally ever after?
