RXP chief executive officer & executive director Ross Fielding, Deloitte partner David Phillips and KPMG Customer, Brand & Marketing Advisory partner Carmen Bekker will join the phenomenal line-up at this year’s Media + Marketing Summit Sydney, taking place on May 4 at Darlinghurst Theatre.
The trio, with a collective 65 years plus experience in the industry, will take to the stage and deliver quickfire presentations on how their business differs from the pack – and how they position themselves against the wider, traditional industry. This will be followed by a discussion with an AdNews journalist before opening to the floor from questions from the audience. Audience participation for this session is greatly encouraged.
RXP is one of Australia’s biggest digital transformation consultancies. Prior to taking on his role as chief executive officer of RXP, Ross was executive director for products and services at Telstra. He has also held the position of chief innovation officer of Telstra’s retail business division and is a former director of the Australian Mobile Telecommunications Association.
Before Bekker joined KPMG in November 2017, she was management partner and European marketing director for flagship WPP agency, J Walter Thomson London, and prior to this business director at Saatchi & Saatchi in London and Sydney. She has developed transformational strategy and campaigns for major global brands such as Procter & Gamble, Toyota, Visa, Unilever, Nestle, Debenhams and Qatar Airways.
Prior to joining Deloitte as a partner to establish the Creative, Brand and Media team, David Phillips headed the media and strategy function at McCann Melbourne – consistently one of Australia’s leading creative agencies.
