Denson’s entry times with MMS’ shift to a more experiential and innovation driven program, uniting thought leaders, producers, practitioners, speakers and sponsors, across all gatherings to drive the conversation year-round.
"ALL brands express an interest in innovation. But the conversation has got to become: how do we make innovation culture outright core to our business? How will a commitment to innovative business practices, working environments, products and solutions transform the prospects of our business going forward?” said Denson. “I've seen first-hand how a deep seated commitment to innovation has changed the outcome for brand after brand. Very few conferences understand how to spark the innovation mindset and emotional connection like MMS. I can't wait to witness it once again with the innovation believers AND doers in New York in a couple short weeks."
“Chris’s strategic and hands-on experience guiding the world’s most respected and beloved brands on innovation could not be a better fit for our show going forward,” said Rebecca Everts, General Manager for the Digital Marketing Sector at Comexposium. “On top of this, he has a knack for moving the room and helping audiences find a more innovation led path forward.”
