- James Stafford, European VP, StyleHaul – James will be exploring how, at 10 years old, YouTube has become the primary media choice for under 25’s, and the rich world of social media has not only created new personalities to drive influence, but fundamentally changed the way brands market to millennials. He will also cover some insights into why this is happening, and how brands can find, collaborate with and measure effective social-led marketing campaigns.
