“PR is no longer that last mile. We’re the starting point in many initiatives.” Chris Foster, CEO of Omnicom Public Relations (OPR), spoke those words as he sat down with PRWeek in Cannes. This was evident in the many PR-led Cannes Lions award victories. It was equally apparent as Foster discussed his main takeaways from his time on the Croisette. These included a notable shift from ad influence to earned influence and the prevalence of reputation in conversations on the ground. Foster's all-encompassing chat with PRWeek executive editor Frank Washkuch also covered AI and the early days of OPR post-Omnicom-IPG merger. A must-listen.

Influencer marketing has officially grown up. What was once a fragmented landscape of one-off deals and experimental budgets has evolved into a sophisticated marketing channel defined by rising creator compensation, faster execution cycles and stronger long-term partnerships. Monica Caponigro, MD at Bobbie and co-author of a new study analyzing six years of creator partnership data, discusses the signals behind the creator economy's maturation and what they reveal about the future of brand-creator relationships. She'll explore why operational excellence is becoming the new competitive advantage, how marketers should rethink creator selection beyond follower count and why the brands winning today are treating creator marketing less like a campaign and more like a business system.
