Special thanks to our former editor and long-time colleague Louise Marsland at TRENDAFRICA.co.za, for the passion and energy she put into persuading so many of SA's busiest marketing and media personalities to contribute and participate in BizTrends2015 and its accompanying event, and for her exhaustive extraction of the key trends that emerged from the content they supplied.
Thanks to Mike Souter of Brand Image for the trendiest concept and design of the BizTrends.pdf summary download here and for the awesome BizTrends corporate identity.
Thanks also to all our associates and thought leader speakers, Ann Nurock, Wayne Naidoo, Di Charton, Paula Raubenheimer and Gustav Goosen, all of whom braved the mayhem in Cape Town on the afternoon of the State of the Nation address to share the BizTrends Imbizo Event at the Inner City Ideas Cartel with us, to Warren Harding for hosting and photographer Jon Meinkin for making everyone look good https://www.bizcommunity.com/Gallery/196/15/3141.html.
Thanks to Nina, Charl and the team at ICIC, gratitude too to Sir Juice, Green Catering and Thirst, for the delicious refreshments, yummy canapés and great service.
To all the people at Biz who went the extra mile to proof, sub, edit, load and code the BizTrends definitive African Media and Marketing Trend Report - you know who you are!
Gracias amigos, to the global community who tweeted, shared and liked our trend content, be assured there's plenty more where that came from.
On behalf of the sponsors, contributors and team, we hope you continue to derive great enjoyment and value for your involvement in helping our business communities start 2015 on such a high note.
Our eternal gratitude
The BizTrends team
