    Active8Digital Marketing Solutions LLP has announced the launch of their digital activation services for the events and experiential community. The entity is labelled ABCDE i.e. Activating Brands & Consumers through Digital Engagements.

     

    Explaining the initiative, Sachin Talwar, co-founder and the leader of Active8Digital, said, “Today, Digital Marketing is the only way a brand or event can make an impact on a bigger and larger scale.

    Mandeep Singh, MD of CPM India, which is a Strategic Partner of Active8Digital, said “Active8Digital rolled out in the second half of this year on a trial basis for a few events to test things out and the results showed phenomenal increase in social engagement platforms like Facebook & Twitter.
