ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
The It Matters conference is the creative platform for brand leaders, decision-makers in the advertising industry, and top-level creatives from agencies.
Creativity is the key to more impactful and effective communication, and it is a lever for measurable economic impact. That’s why we learn together from the most creative minds in the world and the trends set at the most significant creative festival: the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity.
WHY IT MATTERS
Brands that prioritise creativity are more innovative, achieve greater impact with their target audiences, and are demonstrably more successful economically. Where does creativity come from? It requires thinking outside the box. Observing what other creatives are doing and learning from their challenges. Drawing inspiration and connecting ideas. That’s precisely what the “It Matters” conference is about. It provides a unique gateway to the trends and topics shaping the creative industry.
WHAT’S IN IT FOR ME?
You’ll learn from the world’s best creatives how to harness creativity for yourself and your everyday work. These creatives know what they’re talking about—they win Lions at the Cannes Lions Festival. Through lively panel discussions, you’ll gain deep insights first-hand and learn from the successes and challenges of top creatives. We set the benchmark as a platform for exchange within the creative industry. And you’ll be right at the heart of it.
