While BabelCamp is on the go this Saturday, we had a unique opportunity to talk to one of the keynote speakers on stage in Brno who presented some highly interesting facts about the way PR has changed and why ‘brand storytelling’ plays such an important role in online marketing. Chris Lee is the Head of Digital Knowledge in Grayling, a leading global communications agency, and a contributor to Econsultancy, a community for the world's digital marketing and e-commerce professionals. He was happy to share a few words with Netocratic’s readers to demonstrate why PR should lead digital communication.

And why are we so excited by the next generation of advertising? These questions are smoothly answered in the book of the year to be Hacker, Maker, Teacher, Thief: Advertising’s Next generation, with Scott Morrison as one of the marketing and advertising professionals in the book.
