The Value of Interesting: What adidas’ partnership with the All Blacks can teach us about how to make being interesting your brand’s superpower
BCI Keynote
Pete will share the story of adidas and the All Blacks and show how a simple shift in thinking can become your brand’s unfair competitive advantage.
You will learn simple lessons that can be applied to any business, big or small, to help deliver more effective communications. There will also be opportunity to ask questions towards the end of the talk.
We’re delighted to be welcoming Pete back after his previous talk back in February about ‘Fearless Girl’ was hugely popular! We jumped at the chance of inviting him back to deliver his newest talk to the BCI community. This keynote will be held at The Station (Creative Youth Network) on Silver Street in central Bristol. Join us from 12.30pm for lunch, with plenty of opportunity to catch up with old friends and make some new connections too. The talk will begin at 1pm.
Business owners, marketing leaders, and the agency teams who help them build their brand and deliver growth.
