(marketingmagazine.com.my) – We are less than two weeks away from Asia’s leading creative festival, Spikes Asia. Apart from rewarding deserving campaigns that bring creativity to greater heights, the festival will also feature key creative leaders sharing their insights.

Speaking on event’s first day (21st September) is one of India’s biggest movie stars Anil Kapoor who will draw on his experience on both sides of the camera for his session titled, ‘Marketing’s holy trinity for the new world: creativity technology and partnerships’.
