CREATIVE SOCIAL - KEYNOTE SPEAKER
DEC, 2014
We have asked a superb selection of Socials and special guests to tell us what they want for Christmas for themselves as well as the advertising industry to help bring it into 2015 stronger. We also have the creative team behind the new John Lewis Xmas ad joining us to give us the inside story around 'arguably' this Christmas's most talked about tv spot.
Lets find out what makes our speakers happy,
is it ‘stuff’ or is it an experience or maybe a new way of living? Will our industry be improved with our speakers gifts… we will leave that conclusion to you, but first come along and hear what they have to say, we have a feeling it’s going to be a goodun with
a few cheeky surprises chucked in for everyone.

Roses Creative Awards
Judge / 2014
The Roses Creative Awards recognise great
creative thinking across advertising, design
and digital disciplines. Advertising agencies now work across the creative spectrum as do design consultancies. Clients also no longer view the world through the prism of how the marketing services world is structured. They simply want solutions to their problems, great ideas that can work across the board, whether
it means advertising, design, digital, experiential or a combination of the lot.

The persuasive voice of great shopper marketing is where real value lies. In a retail market desperate to cater to short attention spans and infinite choice, the retail environment is fertile ground for the opportunity of building/reinforcing meaningful brand-shopper relationships. It’s the poised introductory handshake of branding for a shopper.
What will catch the shopper’s eye? What will influence them to buy the product? Indeed,
how firm is the grip?
In this workshop Creative Director Shnoose Bailey, and Head of Design Georgia, Barretta-Whiteley
from Saatchi & Saatchi X, will run through some of the agency’s critical marketing tools, strategies and advice in relation to this environment that have the potential to drive start up success and inspire budding entrepreneurs necessary to get them started.
Sarah Rotheram, CEO at Penhaligon's and Georgia Barretta-Whiteley, Head of Design at Saatchi & Saatchi X, will discuss their insights on redefining the shopper experience.
