Driving Brand Growth Through Purpose @ Anomaly

This event is over.

Today’s leading brands seek a higher purpose than profit: to play a larger role in consumers’ lives and in society as a whole. By aligning around a meaningful purpose, these brands are best positioned to build a more emotional and lasting relationship with customers, hire and retain high-quality talent, and drive sustained growth — all while making a positive impact on the world. In fact, purpose-led brands have seen their brand valuation increase by 175 percent over the past 12 years, compared to a median growth rate of 86 percent, according to Kantar Consulting’s “Purpose 2020” report.

At this exclusive members-only conference, learn why being a force for good can be a game-changer in a competitive marketplace, and hear how top client-side marketers are bringing purpose to life as part of a business-wide strategy to drive brand trust, sales, and growth. This one-day event is critical for any marketer seeking insights, guidance, and lessons learned on the power of purposeful marketing.
