About Event
How are people’s habits formed today? How can we change them or make new ones in the best possible way to benefit not only our brand but also the whole society? Or should we just react to emerging trends? How ready for performance marketing are advertisers, media, agencies? These are only some questions we will try to answer in the first Baltic Brand Forum.
Inspired by the 30th anniversary of The Baltic Way and celebrating 15 years of Baltic Brand ranking, the first Baltic Brand Forum will be held on October 3 in Riga in Hanzas Perons.
It will consist of pannel discussions and bright industry professionals from Baltic countries and guest speakers from UK with remarkable international experience in successful brand making.
