The alliance of creative marketers who do it wrong to get it right. They zig when everyone else zags.

They’ve been called bold, brash, brilliant — and occasionally, “a bit much”.

At ADVOLUTION #3, we sit down with these six rule breakers who’ve outsmarted their own briefs — and lived to tell the tale.

This is not a seminar. Call it a roast, a ritual, a reality check, whatever, in six spicy chat sessions.

SESSION 1: How To Market Balls (and everything around them)
Speaker: Jared Chuah

What happens when you take a taboo topic and build a premium brand around it?

Jared Chuah, Head of Growth at Nateskin, has been doing exactly that — scaling a men’s grooming business that isn’t afraid to get cheeky, honest, and occasionally hairy.

This session dives into the wild world of marketing personal care products with guts, wit, and strategy that actually converts.

03:30 PM

SESSION 2: Faith, Fear & Fishermen: How to Create Work That Works
Speaker: Adam Miranda

There’s creative work that looks good. And then there’s creative work that works. Adam Miranda, ECD of Fishermen Integrated, walks us through the madness and method behind ideas that spark joy, spark outrage — or spark a new sales record.

In this no-fluff session, he’ll unpack what makes ideas travel, clients say yes, and the audience care. Warning: contains truths not found in award show press releases.

04:00 PM

SESSION 3: REINVENting Talent for the Creative Age
Speaker: Amy Chandra

In a world where job descriptions are written by ChatGPT and interviews are ghosted by humans, Amy Chandra is here to remind us that great marketing still needs great people.

As the Co- founder of Digital People, she helps brands and agencies find the unicorns who don’t just fit the culture — they disrupt it.

This session is a brutally honest look at the messy, magical world of talent, teams, and the future of work in our industry.

04:30 PM

SESSION 4: Disrupting the Crossroads of Data and Strategy
Speaker: Andrew Tai

Andrew doesn’t just follow consumer trends — he detects them before they surface and turns them into business strategy.

As CEO of Synapze, he’s fusing data, tech, and human insight to help brands grow smarter, not louder.

This session unpacks how today’s brands can sync up with culture, commerce, and customer minds — without glitching the system.

05:00 PM

SESSION 5: Lights, Culture, Action.: Content is a Currency
Speaker: Sasha Bashir

In a world of clickbait, clones and recycled scripts, Sasha Bashir is out here making content that actually respects the audience.

As Manager of Branded Content at Media Prima Omnia, she’s on a mission to inject culture, context, and creativity into campaigns — and leave bland behind.

This session reveals what it takes to create ideas that win both hearts and airtime, and why brands need to stop interrupting the story and start being the story.

05:30 PM

Session 6: Marketing With No Apologies
Speaker: Stanley Clement

Stan doesn’t believe in “target audiences” — he believes in cultural ambush. Stanley is Chief Executive Officer at MBCS.

In this explosive session, he’ll unpack how to weaponise local insights, subvert brand sanitisation, and make your work so honest it either wins awards or gets you fired.

Expect war stories, swear words, and possibly an existential crisis.
