Realizing the importance of digital media and its growing influence, PAS initiated ‘Dig-it’ in 2012, a Digital Marketing and Advertising Conference. It was highly successful and well received by the industry. Continuing its efforts, PAS is now planning ‘Dig-It 2016’ on 29th of April ’16 in Karachi, Pakistan.

This years’ Dig-it conference is focused on Marketing Innovations. In today’s ever-changing marketing landscape, technology is allowing new entrants to challenge established players with huge market shares. Small, nimble, competitors are redefining the future. Everything from manufacturing to design to delivery of products to service models; everything is being reshaped by what is possible.

In this ever-changing kaleidoscope of possibilities, marketers must stay on top of trends, be aware of changes, and be ever ready to adapt; or be ready to face a small, nimble, global startup powered by venture funding, who will find a way to disrupt their businesses forever.
