According to the IMC, the workshop consisted of industry icons — one of whom had been a keynote speaker earlier in the day — battling it out in a game show-type vibe that heralded much laughter.

"Honest conversations like this workshop, let us laugh about the things that we often take too seriously," says Tom Manners, Co-Founder of Clockwork. 

"The Nedbank IMC was a perfect forum for us to engage and grow with key industry leaders — there's no other event with so many senior marketers in one place at one time," adds Manners. 

In an industry that's ever-evolving it's crucial to keep the marketing conversations alive and thriving so that marketers share and grow together — something that both Clockwork and the Nedbank IMC are committed to doing, says the IMC.

"It's precisely why we encourage new partnerships, new speakers and new ideas. With Clockwork as our workshop partner, we are finding innovative ways of sharing our 'Marketing is Business'© message," says Dale Hefer, CEO of the IMC.
