One of the most inspiring speakers at the 2024 Digital Marketing World Forum was Christian d'Ippolito, Head of Marketing and Development at Steel Warriors. He talks about how he has taken skills learnt in the ad industry to help fight knife crime and build community through Steel Warriors. He also talks us through two of his favourite ads, this super-simple print ad for Coke Light and the inimitable Mr. W.
