Join 2016 New York Show℠ Creative Sessions Partner, New York Women In Communications on Thursday, May 19th at 10:00am for a panel session that will explore break through content that—intentionally or not—got people talking about more than the brand.

NEW YORK WOMEN IN COMMUNICATIONS PRESENTS...CONTENT DISRUPTION

Consumers today are in control and they are savvier than ever. To meet their increasingly demanding preferences, marketers have broken through the bonds of traditional advertising, and storytelling is now the thread that runs through everything. So how do brands develop content that breaks through?

This panel will discuss not only what it takes to break through but how brands can, when they get it right, even drive the cultural conversation.
