The creative, marketing, media and tech industries descend on the Croisette very soon – so Campaign and partners are making the most of it.
We’re hosting a number of fringe events during the Festival of Creativity, and we’d love you to join us. You can wake up with Campaign at our Sunriser sessions – over coffee and croissants or catch a later session with a cheeky canapé or two.
Expect to come away with inspiration, insights and tangible takeaways – a chat with an editor – oh, and some branded merch…
