At our recent Digital Content Leaders Masterclass, which took place on 16th January at the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester, many of the UK’s biggest brands and agencies came together to share their thinking and experience on the state of play within the content marketing landscape.

The half-day event, which was the tenth in the popular Marketing Masterclass Series, opened-up with the official keynote by Tunafish Media’s Sam Jones, who shared with delegates his thoughts and experience on Creating Social Content for Brand and Personal Engagement. 

The session looked at how marketers and brands can effectively create content and manage their online channels successfully to raise brand awareness and drive greater levels of online engagement.

Following the keynote, delegates took part in a series of engaging roundtable sessions, which were led by our industry leaders from Wavemaker, Harvest Digital, Digitaloft, TMC Strategic Communications, Search Laboratory and Bring Digital – all addressing the current and future hot issues within content marketing.

The masterclass was attending by a record number of delegates, and we’re delighted that the post-event survey ALSO revealed our highest delegate satisfaction score, which was based on the overall learning experience.

Delegates on the day included: PZ Cussons, Kelloggs, ao.com, Sky Betting & Gaming, Missguided, N Brown Group, SCS Sofas, TravelSupermarket, Rentalcars, Virgin Money, Shop Direct, The Co-op, Matalan, Pets at Home, Plusnet, Bupa, npower and many more of the North’s finest. We’ve added a few of our delegate reviews below, and also included the official showreel.
