Celebrating Best-In-Class Branded Content
We launched the Global Lockdown Content Showcase to celebrate brands that broke through the huge restrictions of lockdown to find creative ways to deliver genuine value for audiences. We wanted to shine a light on campaigns from around the world that entertained, educated and inspired. As voted by BCMA members, one of the best examples was Cisco Systems/Webex, Switzerland, TV Gala Show - 'Wir Sagen Danke' (We Say Thank You), representing BCMA DACH.
Rebecca Allen, BCMA Global Board Director speaks about the show with Nicole Lea, Country Marketing Manager, Cisco Switzerland; Niema Nazemi, Head of Applications-Platforms & Cloud Collaboration Solutions - Central Theater, Cisco and Kai Selck from Cisco's agency, Apercus.
