IAA YP Talks on Trends
YP Talks is a series of global events meant to focus on a hot topic that is worth debating from different perspectives within the MarCom industry by top international speakers. Each edition will be designed and implemented by a different YP Chapter covering in this manner a large variety of themes and approaches.
“YP Talks is a platform that seeks to facilitate conversations and shared learnings among upwardly mobile professionals who are determined to be tomorrow’s game-changers. Whether your objective is to learn or be a thought-leader in the ever-revolving marketing and communication space, you can’t afford to miss this.”
- Joel E. Nettey World President & Chairman at International Advertising Association.
This first edition of YP talks will be an online event powered by IAA YP Romania, that will cover the 2022 trends in the MarCom industry. It will be easily accessed and watched on the Facebook page of the Romanian YP chapter.
"This is the 1st international initiative that highlights the
professionalism and the resources that IAA YP chapters have access to,
stressing the benefits of collaboration, knowledge sharing, and continuous
development.
IAA
has a lot of active YP chapters around the world that contribute nationally
through their initiatives at the development of students and young
professionals in the MarCom industry. With YP Talks we will bring this
contribution to an international level, by offering free access to a series of
events designed and implemented by YP chapters, even in countries where we
don’t run a YP chapter.
The YP Talks will bring to the public’s attention current topics in the MarCom industry, encourage debates, transfer of knowledge from top specialists, and follow the main trends in the field, all of this with a friendly and curious tone. Congratulations to IAA YP Romania for designing the 1st edition of YP Talks and good luck to IAA YP Serbia in organizing the next edition in April.”
