Tradition meets transformation

From its iconic landmarks to its bustling urban centres, Sydney stands out as a dynamic hub for innovation and growth across industries. With a vibrant cultural scene, diverse influencer landscape and thriving local talent, the city is at the forefront of shaping global trends – transforming the way businesses connect with consumers.

As brands compete for attention, engagement, loyalty and trust, how can marketers make every moment count? How can they reposition and revitalise their brands to attract new audiences and remain relevant? Transformation is required to be top of mind and remain relevant.

The Power to the Marketer Festival 2024, presented by Emarsys, will showcase the exceptional brand moments that happen when tradition meets transformation.

Featuring a stellar line-up of speakers from sports, consumer goods, fashion, lifestyle, travel, leisure and entertainment, you’ll discover how brand leaders are delivering on the promises of quality, connection, creativity and value with the help of AI and tailored technology solutions. Guests will also share best practices on how to use unified customer data and channels to create compelling and memorable omnichannel experiences.
