Amin Worldwide Newsletter

Hi there

As we enter the second quarter of the year, AMIN is buzzing with excitement and activities!

We have a new member agency, Rinaldi, that has just joined AMIN Worldwide and we extend our warmest welcome to you in Canada. We also spent some time getting to know Custom Media, our member agency in Toyko, for our very first Agency Spotlight.

The year is busy with upcoming conferences, so be sure to book the dates and sign up for the events to gain invaluable insights and to network with your peers.

We love showcasing agency work, especially when they deliver such impressive results! Don’t forget to share your case studies and work to be featured in our next newsletter.

Connect, share and engage with us on our digital platforms and check out the newly launched AMIN Ambassador programme.

Happy reading!

Launching: AMIN Ambassadors

This programme is intended to help improve communications about events and more easily connect agencies when there are new business opportunities.
