HELPING CREATIVE & SPORTS INDUSTRY LEADERS NAVIGATE CHANGE AND DRIVE GROWTH.

Chris Marlow - Profile.jpg

Advisory for the creative & sports industries.

I’ve enjoyed 20 years experience in the advertising & sports marketing industries.

For 17 years my home was Iris, one of the fastest growing agencies in Europe. In my roles as MD & CEO I oversaw the business' most creatively awarded and commercially successful years, concluding in the sale to Cheil Worldwide.

​​
As a new business specialist, I’ve converted numerous pitch wins totalling £150m+, partnering with some of the world's biggest brands including adidas, Delta Air Lines, KFC, MINI, Pizza Hut, Starbucks & SONY. Resulting in award-winning work at Cannes, CLIO and being named by Contagious in their Best & Bravest list.​

Recently I've been operating in sports sponsorship helping brands and rights-holders successfully activate their properties and advising a suite of social, content & influencer businesses grow at pace. 
 
I’ve advised companies of all shapes and sizes across the creative industries including brands, creative, sports sponsorship & in-house agencies and talent management businesses. I'd love to put this experience to work by helping you achieve your goals.
