About the event
International motorsport is a highly effective, mobile marketing, entertainment and business development platform, combining world-class sport and technology with seamlessly delivered guest experiences and content production. At least, that’s what it looks like on the surface…
In reality, it takes an armada of interdisciplinary professionals to make motorsport (or sport in general for that matter) the sensory overload that fans have come to expect, and not everything goes swimmingly. Marketing professionals wouldn’t tell you this of course. It’s an unwritten rule that staff stay firmly behind the camera, placing all emphasis on the client, the guest, the investor, the prospect, the fan.
In this webinar we meet some of the unsung heroes of marketing communications in motorsport, exploring (among other areas) the preparation and creativity that goes into your ‘snackable’ content, how engineering and marketing overlap to create stories, partnerships and products, how designers should be a motorsport professional’s best friend, as well as delving into the steps you can take to support your career in the fast lane.
