What a whirlwind week for The Digital Voice™! We've been busy buzzing through some of the industry’s hottest events, bringing back insights, connections, and a dash of fun. Here’s what we’ve been up to this week! 🌟 Nectar360 at IAB Digital Upfronts UK 2024: Retail Media has a new face! We joined Nectar360 and retail media rockstars at IAB UK's Retail Media Summit to uncover the latest trends transforming the retail space. From personalised shopper journeys to the surge of data-driven ad spending, Nectar360 spotlighted how retail media is reshaping how brands connect with consumers (spoiler: it’s big). ✨ CreatorFest 2024: This year, impact.com brought an eco-friendly vibe with a greenery wall and an unforgettable puppy play zone hosted by PawsInWork. VIPs got playtime with nine-week-old cockapoos, and attendees left with insights into impact.com’s creator platform along with goodies – branded chargers, treats, and squeaky bones for pet lovers. To top it all off, a Prosecco Hour in the afternoon kept the energy high! 🥂 💸 MadTechMoney 2024: Daniel Pirchio, Onetag's Founder & co-CEO, took the stage at #MadTechMoney! Daniel kicked off the session by sharing his incredible journey of starting Onetag at just 19 and bootstrapping it to a whopping $20 million in only four years. He emphasised that their success stems from a strong team and even stronger technology: “We built the first programmatic curation marketplace with an exchange and optimisation engine at its core.” 🧘 The Voicebox at PI LIVE 2024: At PI LIVE Show 2024, The Voicebox made sure wellness and kindness took centre stage! Julia Linehan led a heart-to-heart on the importance of mental health in business. With over 50% of long-term sick leave rooted in mental health, her talk was an eye-opener, full of real-life ways to boost wellbeing at work. Plus, Kay Munday shared her journey through burnout and resilience from her time leading high-stakes projects at Google on the Wells Stage. 💼 🍹 Campari House with Onetag: We ended the week in style at Campari Group's House with Onetag, catching up on all things digital innovation. Networking, brilliant minds, and a little Italian flair – it was an unforgettable night. Camealia Xavier-Chihota also took the stage at Figaro Digital’s Autumn Digital Marketing Summit, joining a panel hosted by the exceptional Paula Oyinkan Bello, alongside Rachelle Watson-Hill from Grow WYLD and Jessica Horton from L'Oréal. It was an insightful day for marketers tackling digital challenges! It’s safe to say we’re buzzing with inspiration (but exhausted) from these incredible events.

What an incredible session on the Wellness Stage this morning at PI LIVE Show with Julia Linehan and Kay Munday, Google’s Creative Business Lead! They dove deep into the real causes of burnout and shared practical tools to help us protect our mental and physical health in today’s high-pressure work environments. 💬 Julia shared some eye-opening stats: - 51% of long-term sick leave is due to anxiety and stress. - 1 in 5 workers struggle to manage stress, with 9% having had thoughts of suicide. 💬 Kay opened up about her personal experience: "Years ago, while leading one of the biggest business pitches for Google, I hit a breaking point after a major campaign with Nike. I woke up with extreme vertigo, unable to get out of bed. I was signed off work for four weeks, and it was the best thing that could’ve happened—my body told me I had to stop." Some key takeaways: 💡 79% of people experience work-related stress or burnout, and many may not even speak out. ✨ Key causes of burnout: unclear roles, lack of control or support, and overwhelming expectations. The audience was engaged, hands were up with personal experiences and insights on how workplace wellbeing is (or isn’t!) being prioritised. From stress management to burnout-proof wellbeing kits, this session was packed with valuable tips on how to tackle burnout head-on. Missed it?

At The Digital Voice™, we’re proud to highlight the incredible voices making an impact in the world of #adtech and beyond. 💥 In an insightful Black History Month interview led by our Marketing and Social Media Director, Camealia Xavier-Chihota, industry leaders like Chenai Madziwa, client partner at Jellyfish, Michael Balogun, business development director for Reliz, Chloe Davies, CEO & founder of It Takes A Village Collective, and Christopher Kenna, CEO & founder of BA Diversity Media (UK & EMEA) shared their journeys, the importance of diverse leadership, and the progress yet to be made. "Progress is being made for sure... but we are certainly not at the level where we are seeing massive jumps in stats" Chenai expresses, pointing to the stark reality of representation at the C-suite level. 💬 Despite growth, black leaders only make up 0.6% of senior roles in marketing and advertising. Change is on the horizon, but there’s still work to be done. 🌍 Check out what more they say below... #BlackHistoryMonth #Diversity #Leadership #RepresentationMatters #InclusiveWorkplaces #Marketing #TheDigitalVoice #PRAgency #B2B
