NEW YORK, Feb. 27, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Can ad agencies and brands humanize technology? What does it take to attract marketing dollars as the next hot start-up? How can recent digital advances reinvent the live sports experience? Is social media a tool for advertisers or PR? These are just a few of the many topics and innovations that Omnicom's marketing agencies will be addressing, along with partners, at the South by Southwest Interactive and Music Conferences, March 8-17 in Austin, Texas.
"SXSW is a great conference to showcase the intersection between creativity and technology which is critical to our business in the post-digital era, " said Jonathan Nelson, CEO, Omnicom Digital. "From Shopper Marketing to CRM to PR to Advertising to Media and across all disciplines, our agencies at SXSW are demonstrating the latest innovations and thought leadership as we leverage new digital mediums and technologies to better service our clients."
