A world where paid media doesn't exist is not a fictional dystopia – it could be a reality and one that media owners, clients and agencies alike need to be aware of. In this Media Summit session, Danny Bass, CEO of IPG Mediabrands will share the stage with three young execs rising through the ranks of client side, a media owner and a media agency, to explore a future world where paid media doesn't exist – and what the industry can do to shape a more utopian vision.
Bright young things who have never known a media landscape that isn't fragmented, will offer an alternate perspective. The shifting sands of traditional versus new media and paid, owned and earned are what they've always known – but what do they see coming?
