Take Away Moments
Beth's Quotables
- Brands need a mission to guide all content (look at Oatly & Olio for brand inspiration)
- The questions to ask if you are struggling with content:

Danny's Quotables

- E I E Framework: educate, inspire and entertain. The core pillars that people should build content around
Nick's Quotables
- "the normal kind of VR production for example, is like producing a video game. Or a short film or something like that. It's very, very labor intensive, very expensive. You're talking 50,000 upwards to create a one-off VR experience that doesn't really live on. You know, it's an experience you have and once you've had it, once you're very unlikely to return to it, unless it's significant"
