Closing the Loop on Consumer Tech

We’re excited to launch our latest vertical event, which takes a deep dive into consumer tech marketing on August 30th at the Ham Yard Hotel, London. RSVP to secure your spot.

According to AdAge, the technology sector’s total global ad spend was 17.8billion. 6.7% of the global ad spend.

From TV, to smartphones and now wearable tech, consumer technology has and will go on to transform the way consumers go about their lives.

The rate of innovation as well as increased demand means that likes of Apple, Samsung and Sony over the last decade have shortened their product life cycle, releasing new models and competing for similar consumers. This provides marketers with a challenge, as they need to fit their marketing activations into a shorter period of time.

Join LoopMe at the Ham Yard Hotel, London for breakfast as we’ll be discussing:

–          Case studies of effective consumer technology marketing

–          How to harness data for targeted & effective marketing

–          What brands can do to stand out in a highly cluttered environment

RSVP here to be the first to hear about speaker details. Drop us a message if you have any further questions. We look forward to seeing you there!
