“As first-time nominees, the Influencer Marketing Awards Shortlist Party was a fantastic opportunity to meet other agencies, brands, and marketers from across the industry and hear about their campaigns and work. The evening gave us a chance to reflect on our own approach to influencer marketing by hearing from interesting and engaging speakers, attendees and the wonderful team who put on the event,” commented James Silverstone, account director at the projects*.
The guestlist included Tagger’s Hannah Monds and Ana Thorsdottir, who mingled with Takumi’s new group CEO Mary Keane-Dawson and Annie Fong. Meanwhile, Esme Rice and members of the Tailify team chatted about the latest industry trends with the likes of The Fifth’s talent manager Adam and head of new business Ben. Dave Murray and Robin Ward from rewardStyle were spotted chatting to Craig from The Corner while HypeAuditor’s Alex caught up with CreatorIQ’s Natalie about the latest client challenges. The Kindred team ensured everyone was topped up throughout, making the shortlist party a resounding success.“It was the perfect night to discover new projects, chat with old – and new – faces and feel rewarded for all the work done last year. It was fantastic to see how interested people were in Kindred and how they could give their campaigns a charitable twist. Great gathering ahead of the Awards next month, we can’t wait,” said Natalia Cortazar, head of influencer marketing and events at Kindred.
