DMA North Council announce partnership with Prolific North

After a great two-day expo with Prolific North earlier this year, the DMA North Council are proud to announce their latest partnership which is aimed at strengthening its northern network and membership while extending local awareness and engagement.

Within the DMA network of more than 1,000 UK companies, the DMA North Council champions the interests of the data and marketing community throughout the North of England. The focus of the Council is to connect marketers of all levels with insightful guidance and best practice while also educating individuals and businesses alike through networking and knowledge sharing. With a key role in helping the DMA meet its responsibility to uphold the marketing industry’s self-regulatory framework, and support members in the North, the Council are an omni-channel group of specialists spanning various marketing disciplines. Council members include senior stakeholders from small to large enterprises from both agency and brand background, chaired by Sara Watts (Director of DMRI) and Simon Hill (Co-Founder of Extravision).

Prolific North is an independently-owned publishing and events company based in Manchester, with around 100,000 unique web visitors a month it has built a solid reputation within the media, marketing and creative sectors in the North over the past five years.

The collaboration between the two powerful northern marketing communities will bring together those previously unconnected to make great things happen in marketing and beyond, accomplished through regular regional events, innovative training sessions and mentoring programmes.

Martyn Collins, of Prolific North, said “Prolific North is delighted to partner with the DMA and look forward to working closely together to help promote the exceptional talent that exists across the north, especially as part of our three exhibitions, eCommerce Show North, Marketing Show North and Tech Show North.”

The North Council meet every six weeks, stepping outside their normal day-to-day business zones, to bring together like-minds that discuss regional and national news, recent successes (and in some cases losses) and enjoy spending time in one another’s company with the common thread being… a love for marketing. They are always on hand to welcome input from members whether it be a request for help on a challenge, recommendations for events and speakers or simply a desire to join one of their meetings as a fly-on-the-wall observer (perhaps they’ll even talk you into joining them)!
