About Spotlight: Better marketing in Asia Pacific

Spotlight: Better marketing in Asia Pacific

Candid discussion hosted by Rupen Desai (WFA APAC VP) with CEOs from ABG, AANA and ANZA on top CMO priorities across markets.

WFA brings together senior client-side marketers, including over 60 national advertiser associations across five continents, working together to champion better marketing in their respective markets.

In this series, Rupen Desai, WFA’s VP for Asia Pacific, will have candid conversations with the CEOs of some of the most respected national associations in the WFA network, exploring what matters most to their members.

The format will be interactive and not always recorded, to allow participants to take part in a Chatham House-style setting. Only the initial conversation with the three CEOs will be recorded and shared afterwards.

Join us in this remote meeting to hear the top CMO priorities across markets. Featured speakers: 

  • Rupen Desai, WFA Asia-Pacific VP and CMO & Venture Partner, Una Terra 
  • Josh Faulks, CEO, Australian Association of National Advertisers (AANA)  
  • Eleni Kitra, CEO, Advertising Business Group (ABG) 
  • Lindsay Mouat, CEO, Association of New Zealand Advertisers (ANZA) 

The session will then open up to questions, giving WFA members the opportunity to explore pressing priorities, dive into specific markets, and discuss the trends that make Asia Pacific such a unique media and marketing landscape.
