Cynthia Littleton Business Editor “Data does not make a marketer great. Data is ingredients. Marketers are the chefs.” So said Patrizio Spagnoletto, Warner Bros.
Discovery’s global chief marketing officer for direct to consumer, last week during Variety’s Cannes Lions studio presented by Canva. Spagnoletto was among more than a dozen top executives who took on burning subjects for the global marketing and advertising sector in interviews recorded during the annual Cannes Lions Festival, held June 17-21. The festival is devoted to celebrating creativity and innovation in marketing and advertising.
To do so, top players from a range of businesses gather in the south of France for a week of splashing money around and talking about the future of brand-building. As such, Cannes Lions provides a once-a-year chance to gain insights from the biggest names in marketing. My London-based colleague Ellise Shafer joined me for three packed days of video interviews, all of which can be found on the Variety.com website.
This episode features highlights of conversations about audience-targeting strategies and navigating a fractured media landscape from leaders at Disney, NBCUniversal, Warner Bros. Discovery, Paramount, Spotify, Colgate-Palmolive, Volkswagen, Roku, Wondery, Group M, iHeartMedia, Mattel, American Express and more. Also featured are boldface names such as Queen Latifah and social media star MrBallen.
