Welcome speech
Paul Thompson, CCO, Eskimi
9:10-9:35
Crafting a culture of innovation
Martin Coppola, Creative Director, McCann

Fostering innovation requires a culture where creativity thrives at all levels, not just in the creative department. Encouraging diverse perspectives, open communication, and risk-taking while overcoming silos and fear of failure helps cultivate an environment of curiosity, collaboration, and continuous experimentation.

Connected chaos: Mastering impact in media’s new normal
Philip Mahler, CMO, Eskimi

Agencies and brands juggle a fragmented media landscape, tighter budgets, and the need for consistency, impact, and standout creativity. Amid this complexity lies opportunity – mastering the art of thriving in media’s new normal.

10:00-10:25
Integrating media and creative: Back to a unified offering
Koo Govender, CEO, Publicis Groupe Africa

The evolution of advertising has seen media and creative split, while fragmented audiences, diverse platforms, and shorter attention spans now demand a closer, more integrated approach than ever before.

10:25-10:50
Turn attention into action
Ben Dimond, Global Comercial Director, Lumen Research

With 11 years of Lumen research eye-tracking data from 700,000+ participants and their latest global study, discover how attention metrics transform advertising – driving brand awareness, boosting consideration, and delivering measurable ROI.

10:50-11:15
Connected conscious culture
Marketa Havlik-Liebenberg, Chief Data & Digital Marketing Officer, L’Oreal

The brand of the future won’t be product-centric or consumer-centric; it will be human-centric. Don’t think about consumers. Think about the audience. Brands need to provide much more than products and services to stay relevant.

11:15-11:40
