Recent social and political upheaval has contributed to a significant decline in trust. Confidence in institutions is low, whilst the growth of fake news has seriously damaged the credibility of media. Brands, many of which are seen as part of the establishment, are not immune to this growing climate of distrust.

At the same time, technology has more potential than ever to transform experiences for consumers all over the world. To personalise, predict and delight.  Through data-rich and digitally-driven strategies, brands and their values can be vividly brought to life.

Earning and maintaining the trust of your customers is an increasingly complex business - but without it, innovative digital experiences count for very little. Join senior peers to explore how, in the post-truth era, brands can demonstrate trust and earn the loyalty of today’s demanding consumer.
