In his keynote address, Angelo George, CEO of Bisleri International, discussed the need to adapt marketing strategies to meet the expectations of digital audiences. He noted the shift in consumer preferences towards products that support sustainable development and cited Bisleri’s ability to operate seamlessly during the pandemic as a testament to resilience and adaptability.
