Mad Influence

Christopher Kenna, CEO and founder of Brand Advance (the industry’s first media network dedicated to global diversity) joins Mad Influence to talk about how we can use our power in the marketing industry for good.  We cover everything from his move from the military to marketing after an explosion in Iraq led to him being medically discharged from the army, to his personal motivations for setting up a company which reaches consumers in a more equal way. We also have a little bit of a debate about the Facebook boycott, discuss targeting vs stereotyping and the successful campaign he recently ran for the NHS during Ramadan.
