Diversity – Turning Words Into Action

Our Diversity Summit in Cannes involved six speakers with different perspectives on diversity addressing issues such as the lack of women in creative roles, the lack of opportunity for people from ethnic minorities and different social classes within the industry and why these issues matter, not just to society but to the advertising industry, as it seeks new inspirations and to better reflect the society it is advertising too.

Inspirational speakers (list them and their companies) came at the issues from different directions, providing a very interesting set of view points and moving on to the next stage – action.
