When Shift Happens™, smart brands move with it.

Thursday, 17 September. Attend in-person (Mosaïek Teatro, Johannesburg) OR virtually.

All sponsors receive an independent value assessment courtesy of Ornico’s all-in-one brand intelligence solution.

The Nedbank IMC is not just Africa’s biggest marketing conference.
It is where business and marketing connect to shape what is next.

Each year, more than 3 000 marketers, founders and brand leaders come together to explore change, share intelligence and drive growth.

The brands that align are those that share our belief: that Marketing is Business®, and that relevance, creativity and accountability matter.

Why align with the Nedbank IMC?

Unmatched credibility.

Africa’s most respected marketing platform – 20+ countries, multiple industry bodies, one influential stage.

Decision-maker reach.

Senior marketers and business leaders – not browsers.

Year-round visibility.

From on-stage integration to content, media and digital amplification.

Next-generation access.

Through YOUTH1000, partners engage directly with Africa’s next wave of marketing leaders – thousands of students attending virtually at no cost each year.

Purpose with proof.

Every rand invested is tied to measurable engagement and long-term brand impact.
