SUMMARY:Copywriting with AI
DESCRIPTION:Today’s marketers are under pressure to produce high-quality copy at speed. Many have turned to AI tools like ChatGPT for support\, only to realise that without a strong foundation in copywriting\, it is difficult to judge quality\, refine output or achieve meaningful results. \nThis engaging 3 hour workshop bridges that gap. It brings together the fundamentals of human copywriting with practical\, structured AI prompting techniques. Participants will learn how to think like an experienced copywriter first\, then use AI to augment their skills\, improve efficiency and elevate the quality of their writing. The focus is not on replacing human judgement\, but on creating a powerful human and AI workflow that delivers better outcomes.

SUMMARY:REmade 2026
DESCRIPTION:Once seen as a bottom-funnel lever for transactional impact\, retail media is now scaling into a full-funnel\, brand-building platform. Marketers are using it to reach audiences across every touchpoint—from connected TV to in-store screens—while retailers double down on owned data to create closed-loop systems that promise precision and accountability. Loyalty\, purchase history and omnichannel behaviour are fast becoming the most valuable media assets in the market. \nThis shift is also reshaping who gets to play. Retail media is no longer just for traditional advertisers; non-endemic brands from every sector – from banking and telcos to travel – are moving in\, drawn by scale\, targeting potential and proximity to purchase. At the same time\, the line between digital and physical retail is blurring. In-store experiences are increasingly connected\, dynamic and measurable. AI is already streamlining campaign planning and personalisation\, but the bigger story may be in measurement: as expectations mature\, performance metrics are shifting beyond ROAS toward brand lift\, incrementality\, and lifetime value.
