Speaking Topics
-Digital Transformation —The LEGO Journey: This keynote focuses on LEGO’s digital transformation and how it went from being a company without any social media or YouTube presence to one of the biggest brand creators in the world, bringing in millions of dollars from social commerce and the monetization of digital content. Lars was the leader behind this aggressive change and takes the audience through his principles of transformation and change.
-Next Generation Influence Marketing: Influencer marketing is one of the fastest-growing marketing channels, with expectations of becoming a $22 billion industry by 2022. But the first phase of growth has also resulted in a lot of disappointment, lack of results, fraud, and fake influencers and followers.
-The Future of Media: Consumer behavior is changing rapidly. TV is in decline, streaming video is booming, but it’s not leaving advertisers with a lot of inventory to buy. Prices are increasing on TV CPMs while it is getting harder and harder to create reach. Digital publishers are struggling, and the big platforms are getting more and more competitive against each other and against the new Chinese entrants.
-Artificial Intelligence and Creativity: Will artificial intelligence become the future of creativity? Will the Creative Director become the
victim of automation? Or will it transform into an AI-augmented Super Creative that will be able to combine the human ability to introduce new, radical predictions with the ability to work across infinite arrays of possible solutions?
