  • Mark, you had a video series going called Digital Africa. What happened to it?
  • How can a marketer be a better ambassador internally, within their company to drive their digital initiatives?
  • In your agency, you show a strong emphasis on research and data, but also have creative services. If you had to choose which one should be most important to marketers, which would it be?
