Richard Pinder to Deliver Keynote Address to The Guardian's Changing Advertising Summit 2010
London, United Kingdom, September 25, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Now in its fourth year, the Changing Advertising Summit has established itself as an essential forum for decision-makers working in all areas of advertising and communications. From advertisers and brand owners to full service, creative, media, comms, digital, research, PR and specialist agencies, media owners, ISPs, mobile operators, broadcasters ... all those focusing on consumer engagement in the digital age.

Richard Pinder joins a prestigious line up including Keith Weed, chief marketing and communication officer, Unilever; Michelle Klein, Smirnoff global digital marketing director, Diageo; Stefan Olander, global director, brand connections, Nike; Damian Burns, head of global agency relations, Google; Ben Hughes, global commercial director & deputy CEO, Financial Times.

This one-day summit will examine the key mechanics of modern advertising - how brands, their agencies and media owners are using increasingly sophisticated, targeted and accountable advertising tools in the digital age to engage with empowered consumers operating under a new and very different set of business rules, media platforms and consumer expectations.

Richard Pinder will deliver the closing keynote address and will suggest that the debate over new media obscures a far more important debate on having brands build bonds with consumers – that of how to avoid promoting inappropriate consumption.

"Nobody does events challenging the status quo quite as well as The Guardian," said Richard Pinder.
