Stop Press - Tony Anderson Chosen For Kent Marketing Lecture 2008

I have almost completed line up of next years events and this will be posted on the site very soon.  I just thought I would pass on these details about our speaker for the Kent Annual Lecture which will take place at the Ramada Hotel on October 8th 2008.  At present we are working on a theme and this will be launched to you all very soon. 

Well here are Tony’s details, I think he is a worthy addition to the calibre of speakers that we have been having over the last 6 years.

After rising through the Marketing ranks at British Airways and Thomas Cook, Tony turned from gamekeeper to poacher when he was appointed Sales and Marketing Director of easyJet.  As the new airline’s third employee he helped launch the company that became an internet pioneer, a household name and a major force in European aviation.  Tony went on to become Group Marketing Director for the easyGroup and held positions on the board of several of Stelios’s companies.

After five years at easy Group, Tony held senior positions at pioneering online bank Egg where he served as Retail Marketing Director and TNS PLC the world’s largest market information company.  More recently Tony joined the board of the UK’s largest property management & regeneration company Places for People and became Marketing Director of The Children’s Mutual.  He is an adviser to a number of technology and alternative energy companies in the Cambridge area.  

Tony has become a recognized speaker on marketing related topics including branding, on-line marketing & communications.  His clients range from business associations and conferences/events to major multinationals. He has appeared as a commentator on BBC Business programmes including the “The Apprentice”

Marketing Magazine have ranked Tony among the top marketing names in the UK and he has been a finalist for the Marketeer of the Year award

The Kent Marketing Lecture will take place at the Ramada Hotel on October 8th 2008.  Stay tuned to our website http://www.cimkent.co.uk for more details.

All the best
