Featuring: Michael Roth, Alex Scott, Passion, and Girls Running the World

 

The women of our industry are truly amazing. As they continue to shatter the glass ceiling, women are gaining equal footing on all fronts, including sports marketing and the top tiers of the advertising world.

Women are well-represented at #AWEUROPE this year, as are those passionate about their jobs and those reinventing our industry, like one of our distinguished speakers, IPG’s Michael Roth. Check out these sessions featuring the best of their respective fields.

Football phenom Alex Scott, Captain, Arsenal FC and English Women's National Team, tackles the issue of women in sports marketing and how they can continue to forge ahead to gain greater recognition in “Do We Really Believe That ‘This Girl Can’?”

For Lauren Laverne and other leading women from across the creative industries, they discuss how they’ve achieved success in a historically man’s world. “Who Run the World, Girls” looks at the pluses and minuses over the years as we try to reach a target of 40% female representation at every level of the industry by 2020.

Just as women shatter the glass ceiling, media is rapidly evolving in today’s tech-driven ecosystem, shattering business models and creating new challenges and opportunities for growth. IPG Chairman and CEO, Michael Roth, headlines an extraordinary group of industry leaders who are on the front lines of re-invention.

Those who succeed do so through hard work and a passion for what they do. Mark Frith, Editor in Chief, Now & Look magazines hosts a panel including acting royalty Richard E. Grant, ex-Blur guitarist Alex James and model Daisy Lowe. The panel will discuss how they’ve managed to turn their passions into careers.
