"Progress is not guaranteed. We are the people who lead the fight as DEI is under siege," emphasized Channing Martin, our Global Chief Diversity and Social Impact Officer, at #ADCOLOR2024. Opening this year's conference, Channing joined a historic conversation with fellow Chief Diversity Officers from the world's leading advertising holding companies. Their discussion, moderated by ADCOLOR Conference and Awards Founder and President Tiffany R. Warren, highlighted the essential role of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) efforts in fostering a more just and thriving society, even amidst current challenges.

Our Chief Strategy Officer Alex Hesz joined LBBonline - Little Black Book to discuss how his recent experiences outside of advertising are shaping his approach at Interpublic. From political campaigns to working with NGOs, Alex has seen the power of stepping beyond the industry’s comfort zone and is excited to bring that mindset to our company’s strategic efforts. “I think there's a lesson to be learned the other way, which is that nuance often hides from numbers. There’s a need to really understand emotion, really understand that human insight can sometimes not be generated through quantitative data alone. Sometimes you still need to sit in someone's kitchen and really speak to them about their relationship with a category, a brand, an individual, to understand that there would be a human opportunity.” Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/e6FZrzy4

As the Community Partner for Disability at ADCOLOR Conference and Awards, Interpublic—alongside FCB Global and Current Global—is hosting a webinar focused on advancing disability inclusion in sports marketing.   According to a Nielsen Study, despite 26% of the American population and 15% of the global population having a disability, only 1% of advertising represents disability. Co-hosted with ADCOLOR, the webinar will dive into how brands can implement inclusive marketing and accessible communication to more authentically represent people with disabilities, both in front of and behind the camera.
