Brand marketing remains under constant scrutiny—often the first to face cuts when budgets tighten. Why? This session will explore the persistent challenge of defending brand investment inside the boardroom. We’ll unpack what marketers are getting right (and wrong) in how they measure brand impact. Learn how to reframe brand as a long-term value driver, not a discretionary spend, and gain practical strategies to protect and prioritize brand investment.
