Look left, look right and ask yourself: have we got the voices here that we need? Because when it comes to building your brand, the people in the room are giving an opinion on what’s going to resonate with those outside of it. That’s make or break territory. Here’s a viewpoint from our recent conversation-starting breakfast event with perspectives on sparking change from our own Patrick Keogh and panel of special guests. Speaking here; Jemma Wong from PlasticFree.com. What’s your take on this, how do you get the right people in the room? And what do you do if you think you have the wrong ones? #ConversationStarting #BrandBuilding #CommunityBuilding #BrandExperience #MarketingEvent #MarketingAgency

🌿✨ Reflecting on an Incredible Gathering of Minds at Our Annual Member Summit! ✨🌿 Last week, we enjoyed bringing together our passionate members behind #sustainability and #marketing the natural food movement at our much-anticipated #ForumforNaturals Annual #MemberSummit. It was a day marked by informative presentations, vibrant roundtable discussions, a meeting of minds, and the shared vision that drives us all. 💫 We are thrilled to share a glimpse into these enriching conversations with a video that encapsulates the essence of our gathering. This isn't just a video; it's a celebration of the collective wisdom that flourishes when we come together. 🤲 Each discussion was a journey through the vast landscape of knowledge that our members cultivate. The energy in the room was palpable as insights were exchanged and new connections forged. This video is a testament to the power of collaboration. You can see the spark ✨ of potential partnerships and the deepening of professional bonds. 💖 It's a reminder that when we unite, we can turn individual strengths into collective power. We extend a heartfelt thank you to all our members who contributed to the dynamic discussions. Your expertise and enthusiasm make our association not just a network but a community. Let's continue to nurture these connections and grow together. Watch, be inspired, and let's keep the conversation going. Because together, we're not just feeding the world, we're nourishing it.

Ways to Increase Access

Latest update on this great initiative!

When you dress the event organiser's brand colours. 🤔 After year away from biege food, bad coffee and even badder wine, it was good to be back at the fringe around #cpc23 until domestic life dragged me away / rescued me (take your pick). Less choice for the non-accredited fringe dweller than in previous years, I thought, but the events I did attend were mainly packed to capacity. Some highlights included; - UCL Policy Lab event at which More in Common revealed what their data tells us about what the British public think about 'woke' and culture wars - answer, not as much as the Twitterati (Xerati????), politicians and some of the media might think, other things (like the future of our planet) matter much more. - Hellos and brief catch-ups with policy/comms people Lenny Rolles G Giles Daniel Cochlin - Fun chance chat with Charlie Mercer Tal Feingold and Mia Bartoloni-Mathieu, and invite to a good event from Startup Coalition on AI with SoS Michelle Donellan. Thanks guys! - A lack of non-meat options at the free buffet and a discussion about whether vegetarianism and veganism is 'a thing' for those on the political right. - One of the bravest and most courageous opening personal contributions you'll likely see from a fringe panellist, which you won't find reported or recorded anywhere (and the speaker has asked for it to remain that way) - if you were among the 50 in the room, you will know what I am talking about. Back tomorrow, for at least the morning, looking forward to Showrunner Communications client MetroPolis's fringe with Centre for Cities on the Future of High Streets, and then heading to Liverpool next Monday for more of the same. See some of you there.
