You’ll be pleased to know we won’t be charging you anything additional for this week’s Ad Matters, unlike mostly everything else in the entire world. Stay calm, people, it will all be OK. On a more serious note, here’s what we have had to say on this latest development in another year of big global news stories.
It’s been an eventful week in the world of advertising too, with the Advertising Week Europe big top descending for three days at 180 Strand. We were excited to have the opportunity of recognising the achievements of one of our favourite American friends, Matt Scheckner, with a Leadership Icon award, as our colleagues in the UK Advertising Export Group prepare to launch the search for this year’s recipient at Advertising Week New York in October. Stephen, our CEO and I, were also treated to the experience of opening the market at the London Stock Exchange on Wednesday am, as part of the AWE celebrations. A wonderful moment, even if there were a lot of red numbers up on that digital scoreboard.
Huge congrats to the AWE team, led by Katie Ingram, for another successful event.
