Is female empowerment a trendy topic that advertisers are using to get noticed or are we on the verge of a marketing revolution? This conversation looks at brands using female empowerment as a marquee element of their communications and the digital marketing executives helping them tell their stories. We will explore the authenticity of advocacy from brands and highlight the thought leadership being done in the space. This discussion will bring attention to the art of storytelling in content marketing, the huge opportunity for cause marketing, and the impact it makes on today’s impressionable millennial audience.
