In our C-Suite Outlook for 2025, a noticeable data point is the fact that around the globe, 31% of CMOs and CCOs say they will increase their budget for advertising and brand building by 10% or more this year. CEOs were aligned with 32% of them saying the same thing, but this was higher up on their list of investment priorities in second place, just behind AI and data analytics.

Is this signaling a new era for brand building and if so, how will we approach it?

If you are a member of The Conference Board’s Marketing & Communications center, join our Roundtable discussion on March 14th to debate with peers the following questions:

  • How are you framing the balance between short-term performance marketing and long-term brand building?
  • As social media, the most invested channel for advertising, becomes less trusted, how are you thinking about your connections strategy to engage, convert and keep your customers?
  • Looking back at the Superbowl, how is the craft of creativity being leveraged and what changes do we foresee in the new administration?

If you are not a center member and want to sample the power of these discussions, ask Renee Walton if she can smuggle you in to sample a session.

Members of The Conference Board get exclusive access to the full range of products and services that deliver Trusted Insights for What's Ahead® including webcasts, publications, data and analysis, plus discounts to events.
