This episode examines the rise of virtual influencers

In this week's episode, we take a look at the rise of virtual influencers - including The Drum's very own creation Floresta Nas. Why are brands investing in virtual influencers, what does it say about our relationships with fame and social media, and what are the implications for flesh and blood influencers?

If you've missed any of the previous Marketing Stories, you can catch up now to hear about the future of the automotive industry and marketing's relationship with religious audiences.
