ASC Annual Meeting and Breakfast 2009

ASC will hold its Annual Meeting and Breakfast on April 29, 2009 at 8:30 a.m. at the Sutton Place Hotel in Toronto.

Keynote speaker Dr. Oliver Grey, Director General of the European Advertising Standards Alliance (EASA), presents It’s a small, small world: Advertising Self-regulation in the Global Reality. Join us as Dr Gray provides a brief tour of the issues affecting advertisers and advertising self-regulatory bodies around the world. Issues to be touched upon include: food advertising to children; alcoholic beverage advertising; gender portrayal in advertising; ad self-regulation of digital media; safety concerns arising from automobile advertising; and sustainability. What approaches are different countries using to address these, and how do these approaches affect the rest of the world? How can self-regulatory bodies work together to best manage the global advertising reality?
