The focal point of discussion centered on AI’s significance and its role in elevating professionals within the advertising ecosystem.

While acknowledging the evolution of advertising in tandem with AI’s transformative impact on society, the experts underlined the need for marketing professionals to embrace and leverage AI technologies to stay competitive in the rapidly changing landscape.

He, however, commended industry professionals for their resilience and innovative spirit towards building an industry that all practitioners can be proud of.
