About this event

This past year has been stacked with unknowns. The pandemic has no doubt shifted the way in which you work.

Since then, the conversation around wellbeing in the workplace has gotten louder. It can no longer be ignored. Companies are waking up to the idea that wellbeing and people strategies need a holistic approach to connect and retain employees. An approach that allows us all to show up, do our job and feel a bit more human at work.

In this unique fireside chat, Ben and Andy will speak about all things people, culture and strategy.

The FAST – TV 2.0 format will include a round table where each panelist will have a few minutes to speak about how the internet has changed television forever. They will address the benefits and challenges that the internet brings to content delivery and consumption. Some of the questions to be addressed include: Have the incumbent behemoths like Netflix, Amazon and Disney changed the media landscape forever; is ad-supported linear TV dead or just transforming; has the sheer availability of content and the fragmented delivery made it more difficult for brands to engage with viewers. What is the answer to these challenging questions? Can technology offer a solution?
