We know marketing works. It changes preferences, drives behaviour, and shapes culture.
So why is it so rarely used to tackle the biggest social and environmental challenges we’re living through?
In this talk, Dr. Stewart pulls apart the uncomfortable gap between marketing as a powerful tool and marketing as it’s usually practiced. We’ll look at how marketing can be used for social good (not just shallow values or profit), and what “effective” actually means when the goal is public health, climate action, or social equity.
Expect evidence-based ideas, real-world examples, and a few ethical questions that might ruin your ability to look at “awareness campaigns” the same way again.
After that, we open the bar.
No panels. No forced networking. Just good drinks and better conversations.
