“I had the pleasure of having Dan as a guest speaker to share his experience of brand consultancy with our marketing communications students. I found his presentation very informative – and entertaining – and particularly appreciated his explanations about how brand theory informed his practice. Dan is a great ambassador for the branding profession, and I would definitely recommend him as a guest speaker to inspire and enthuse”.
