In this session...

What worked for brands to garner attention does not always work for consumers today. Brands are required to shift to a model based on depth and breadth, human connection and storytelling, which is where community planning and engagement comes in.

In this session, join Whalar and a panel of creators for practical strategies on how to understand and build relationships with communities to drive business growth. We’ll take a deep dive into some of the most dynamic and thriving communities you never knew existed.

*All efforts will be made to cater to dietary requirements; however, so close to the event, we won't be able to guarantee it.

From foraging to glass-blowing to ice enthusiasts — we’ll explore how these communities work and how brands can enter, credibly.
