The Drum believes the marketing industry has the power to change the world. So we’re gathering the brightest minds in the industry together to tackle some important issues. Like getting MTV’s youth audience to tackle sexual inequality. And helping Belkin and Coder Dojo connect kids in Cuba with kids in America. This is all about coming up with ideas to solve some big issues. We’ll then be bringing the best solutions to life on Day It Day in November. And using our collective skills to make the world a little bit better.
