marketing events

Here’s the deal: if you’re a marketer looking to build meaningful connections in the industry, learn about the latest marketing wrinkle in Singapore, and re-energise yourself with new marketing ideas, then make an effort NOT to miss any of the following marketing events in Singapore.


Whether you’re planning to hit the event circuit this year as an attendee, a keynote speaker, or a network expert, these marketing events are a great way to mingle with the industry leaders and other marketers. They also provide the much-needed platform to step up your marketing game as the year rolls and far beyond.


There’s one catch, though – these marketing events and conferences are organised all the time. Singapore alone has dozens of them in a year. So if you were to attend every single one of them, you’d be exhausted beyond measure, with no time left to do your stuff. Plus, since most of these events aren’t exactly gratis, attending them alone could mean over-straining your finances.

There isn’t any shortcut around this – as a marketer that’s looking to grow and step up their marketing game, you have to figure out how to invest in yourself. We’re living in a fast-paced world, where everything is moving fast. One way to ensure you’re NOT left behind or that you’re always ahead of the curve is by making an effort to start attending these events.


You want to gain exposure by interacting with other bright people in the industry, so you can put your minds together and figure out the best way forward.


Simple: read through the following list of events and single out which ones among them do you plan to visit as the year rolls by, without fail.
