The fifth edition of this executive event will take place on May 21st in Alicante, under the theme 'The New DNA of the Executive: Purpose, Action, and Impact'. The organization expects to bring together over 1,200 professionals to foster knowledge exchange, generate opportunities, and create synergies within the business community.
The panel discussion, moderated by Helena de Fuentes, will focus on key aspects such as customer experience, consistency in positioning, innovation at the point of sale, and adaptation to new consumption habits. The objective is to analyze how to generate value through branding in areas such as tourism, hospitality, food, and consulting.
The speakers joining the program include the president of Palladium Hotel Group, the general manager of Starbucks Spain and Portugal, and a partner at Deloitte. These profiles, linked to high-profile brands, will share their experience in managing businesses in constantly transforming sectors.
“"This addition will allow us to address success stories of consolidated brands in sectors in permanent transformation and to understand what levers must be activated for the public to desire certain products or services."
The day will begin at 9:00 AM with an institutional welcome by the president of the Diputación de Alicante and the mayor of Alicante, along with the president of El Círculo. The program, which will run until 3:00 PM, will combine individual interventions, a dialogue, and the panel discussion to delve into topics such as brands, geopolitics, health, business management, resilience, international expansion, innovation, and training.
