The event was primarily conceived as a conference for young creatives, which is why it brought together numerous junior and mid-senior specialists.
A group of VERN's students participated in the BrandNew conference , the first edition of this project organized by the Mediakit.hr platform, which was primarily conceived as a conference for young creatives.
It is therefore not surprising that the conference repertoire was dominated by topics ranging from marketing, public relations and TiTok to Baby Lasagna, Ultra Europe, etc.
Symbolically, BrandNew was held on the occasion of the International Marketing Day, and with the gathering of almost 500 experts, students, junior and mid-senior specialists from the fields of marketing, PR, media and production, our students listened to interesting lectures, panels, Q&A sessions and informal conversations.
Considering the educational and professional background from the real sector, representatives of VERN were also represented in the program part of the conference, so our students also attended the panel "New kids on tne block - Step by step to the big stage" moderated by our lecturer Višnja Skorin , and one of the panelists was our student Karlo Gagulić who represented his production association Playbox Production and the project of the international student film festival Playbox Shorts, of which he is the director.
In addition to them, among the lecturers were our alumni Krešimir Šustić , a public relations and PR expert at Baby Lasagne, who gave a lecture entitled "One on one: Rim Tim Tagi Dim - Words without meaning that the whole world understands" and lecturer Gordan Turković , co-owner of the award-winning agency CTA communications, who participated in the panel "I Heard It Through the Grapevine - What's the buzz in the PR industry!?".
We believe that our students learned interesting news from the dynamic world of communications, and below you can watch part of the atmosphere from the program part of the BrandNew conference.
