The Future of Branding is about your audience and their journey experiencing your brand. Brands are evolving from being identified in text and graphics to experiences. Control has shifted from companies to the consumers.

The Future of Branding Roundtable Lunch is an invitation-only group of senior marketing executives from Chicago’s leading companies. The roundtable members benefit from a highly interactive format that allows every leader to exchange knowledge and experiences while networking over a 90-minute lunch. Siegel+Gale, the leading branding firm, is the event moderator. Business Development Institute is the event organizer.
