The need to understand the Millennials and listen to them was highlighted by Daniel Bukumirović and Maša Milutinović from VICE Serbia. Moreover, they appeal to them to trust in themselves, to be courageous and to speak out loud even if they are afraid. They explained that Millennials are not selfish, they are just trying to cope with their situation. They are questioning everything and they want to work smart, not hard.

»Every agency has its tribe and in tribes everyone builds the culture. Every agency has swag, to show what culture means for them. Swag is to show how things work, is emotional and functional. It is the way of making and breathing things. It’s the agency’s bible. It’s to have an attitude«, Alemsah Ozturk, CEO / Chief Happiness Officer, 4129Grey and Chief Digital Officer, Grey EMEA, Turkey, concluded the first day of the Festival.
