The Creative Effectiveness Formula

Turning Risk Into Results When creativity is effective and effective work is creative, it can make a huge impact on business, brands and even the world. However, driving effectiveness as well as innovation can seem risky, as innovation at its core is new and unpredictable.

In this session, our esteemed SMARTIES jury will share their view on how brands can take the relationship between effectiveness and creativity and use it to lead different areas of thoughts, innovation, and earn their way into the cultural conversation.
