Speakers
Hamish Pringle – Director General, IPA
Hamish's 25 year agency experience with Ogilvy & Mather, Boase Massimi Pollitt, Publicis, Abbott Mead Vickers, his own agency Madell Wilmot Pringle, Leagas Delaney, KHBB and latterly Saatchi & Saatchi where he was Vice-Chairman and Director of Marketing, made him an obvious choice to lead the IPA, which he has done since 2001. Hamish will give his perspective on how the changing TV landscape creates both challenges and opportunities for creative agencies.
Rhys McLachlan – Managing Partner, Futures and Implementation, MediaCom UK
Kiwi-born Rhys probably has the most envied role in MediaCom, he gets all the latest gadgets, he’s allowed to pontificate about all sorts of flying car nonsense and, most annoyingly, he’s somehow managed to convince the bosses that a critical element of his role entails annual flights to Las Vegas in order to attend the legendary Consumer Electronic Show. Rhys will give us his views on the opportunities, behaviours and challenges for clients as the pace of change in TV accelerates.
Ryan Jamberotz, MD of Videology
Ryan previously worked for Leo Burnett in China and London where he led strategy project teams for Samsung and McDonald’s. Prior to joining Videology, Ryan was Director of Corporate Development for GroupM, the WPP media investment management company. Ryan is responsible for the growth of Videology’s optimal ad decisioning platform through both publisher development and strategic partnerships within the online video space and he’ll show us how Videology is changing the future of Video on Demand.
