Marketing, Advertising, and Diversity

Demi at Channel 4 launch event of The Plug

Demi Abiola (HG 1993), the Society’s Diversity Officer, was busy the other week with events and results relating to his interests and industry – marketing/advertising and diversity. 

First, the initial results of the Advertising Association All in Census were shared to the industry at the News UK building. The Advertising Association works to unite the UK’s advertising industry to promote the role and rights of responsible advertising. 

Demi then went to Channel 4, and the launch of The Plug. The creation of a cultural collective focused on empowering underrepresented communities in the media industry. He said, “it was wonderful to see this initiative and how powerful it is when you bring people together like this”. 

Lastly, Demi attended The Marketing Academy graduation day. Demi shared that this brought back wonderful memories of his own Marketing academy graduation with the 2021 Cohort. “You always feeling a little more happier, energised and engaged at anything organised by them. And last Thursday was no exception”.
