Event Details

Due to unexpected circumstances, Fredrik Lofthagen will not be able to give the presentation, and Mark Pinner, Managing Director of Interel China will be the speaker instead.


New techniques with digital and social media in marketing, advertising and branding have radically changed these disciplines, whereas public affairs and government relations are seemingly conservative, often little changed from their practice 20 or even 30 years ago.

However, this is now changing. In his talk, Mark Pinner, Managing Director of global public affairs agency Interel, will draw on examples of best practice to show how digital and social media are now changing the way public affairs and government relations is conducted around the world.
