Head of Digital Strategy at The Tomorrow Lab and #TTLPresents organiser, Jess Orr, said: “Our aim with #TTLPresents is to provide the very best learning and networking opportunities for the local marketing industry. Now one of NI’s best-loved events, we take great care to ensure that the speakers we host on our stage are the very best within their respective industries.

“It’s really important to us that attendees leave with new insights and are inspired to push their creative boundaries and hatch plans to make their organisation thrive. We usually welcome up to 100 attendees at each #TTLPresents so having a varied speaker roster is incredibly important to ensure everyone benefits. The event setup is intentionally relaxed so that attendees feel comfortable asking questions and chatting with their neighbours to form new connections.

“Our upcoming event will focus on content marketing and social media – how content can benefit businesses, how to create, distribute and promote it, and real case studies exploring strategy.”

Managing Director of The Tomorrow Lab, Adrian Allen, commented: “Online content is a dynamic, essential part of the modern marketing landscape. Our agenda at The Tomorrow Lab, where content is concerned, always relates to solving our clients’ problems and delivering results in the most creative and effective way, be it to build brand equity, increase website traffic to acquire more customers or building consumer awareness on a specific channel.

“Sharing our learnings and the insight of other experts locally is really important to us so we can do our bit to push our local industry even further ahead.”

The Tomorrow Lab’s current client roster spans across a variety of sectors such as FMCG-leader, Danone World Food Group and Global Drinks Distributor, C&C Group, along with local household names such as energy company, Electric Ireland, Bangor based global hairbrush distributor, Denman and global endless conveyor belt manufacturer Smiley Monroe.
