V. MEDIA AGENCY PARTNERSHIPS IN A NEW AGE (12:20 – 1:00pm ET)
Consumer habits have changed at an accelerated pace over the past year, driven by COVID-19 and rapid digital transformation. The bar has been raised for marketers, and what they expect from their agencies has evolved as well. What can procurement and marketing professionals do to modernize and future-proof these crucial relationships? How can we shift the conversation from 'savings' to 'value', from 'vendors' to 'partners', and focus on driving what's most important – business growth? In this session, we'll share key industry trends, learnings from recent pitches, and best practices that can be applied for the future.
