In this ‘beachside’ session, we’re sitting down with the people behind one of the most effective and consistently awarded brand-agency partnerships out there - Heineken and LePub

The LBB & Friends Beach is thrilled to unveil an exclusive beachside chat with Heineken and LePub, part of Publicis Groupe, on Tuesday 17th June at 11:30am. LBB’s founder and CEO, Matt Cooperwill sit down with the global head of Heineken, Nabil Nasserand global CEO of Le Pub, Bruno Bertelli to unpack their unique, award-winning relationship as client and brand.

In this laid-back but unfiltered conversation, Matt will dig into how and why LePub was built, what makes it different from a traditional agency setup, and how they’re working as partners to secure Heineken’s "future of social life" in a world that’s not exactly rushing back to the bar.

From big ideas to local nuance, global platforms to community building, and the role of data in driving creativity, this candid conversation will examine LePub’s purpose-built creative model, designed to future-proof one of the world’s most iconic brands, whilst sharing examples of superb creative work along the way.

MODERATOR


Matt Cooper, CEO & Founder, Little Black Book

​Matt Cooper has been working in the ad world for over 35 years. He began at Saatchi & Saatchi, London in the wild 1980s — before the internet and mobile phones but during the heyday of flash company cars and bottomless expense accounts. He later joined a small effects company called The Mill, now a top global post-production house with offices in London, New York, and Los Angeles.

While at The Mill, Matt launched BEAM.TV, the online advertising approval, archiving and distribution platform. It was during his global travels for BEAM that the idea for LBB was born: a need for a central platform to find the best companies, places to stay, client-friendly restaurants and creative resources in each city. What began as a series of books evolved into the global creative platform that LBB is today.
