All achievements, all earned riches, have their beginning in an idea ~ Napolean Bonaparte
An Idea not only changes your life, but can also transform it. When Ideas converge, the BEST evolves! Ideas help us to build creativity. Come, witness and participate in Mélange 2012 – Where Ideas Converge.
IMCBLAST - THE IMC CONCLAVE
The main goal of the colloquium is to exchange ideas and learn how to handle the dramatic changes in media, marketing, and consumer behavior in your day-to-day business using the latest knowledge, best practice, and trends. We will try to gain insights from the bigger picture instead of focusing on only one discipline, such as technology, marketing, or media. Furthermore, we feel that all areas are becoming ever more connected and also recognize the need for better understanding across all departments today.
Unlike other conferences, all speakers will prepare special presentations and contribute in their own special way (forget the boring panel and show-off speeches – they won't happen at our place). We are giving the speakers the opportunity to choose the advertisement domain they like, with the idea "present what you think you can present best." We believe we have the best speakers and are confident that they will contribute in their own special way.
Some of the dignified speakers are:
Mr. Bhaskar Das – Head, Time of India.
Mr. Tarun Chauhan – Head, Lowe Lintas.
Mr. Satish Ramachandran – Head(creative), Draft FCB Ulka.
Mr. Prabhakar Mundkur – CEO, Percept/H
