The Starcom Australia leadership team, CEO Matt Houltham, Chief Operating Officer, Louise Romeo, and Chief Client & Growth Officer Scott McCaffrey explore the evolving definition of a media agency partnership as AI continues to reshape the industry. As the marketing landscape faces "twin evil forces" of increasing uncertainty and growing complexity, the conversation dives into how agencies must move beyond simple efficiency to drive true business effectiveness.
