MANAGING Director of TPT International, Charles Igbinidu, has been appointed into the Global Advisory Council of the 2013 World Brand Congress.

The World Brand Congress is usually the single largest rendezvous of best brains behind some of the world’s most successful and sought after brands.

In a letter to Igbinidu, the Global Chairman of the Congress, Dave Porter, said: “I wish to invite you to be a part of the Global Advisory Council. As an esteemed member of the Advisory Council, you will network with professionals in your community/country. The World Brand Congress attempts to reach out to professionals across the globe and therefore every member of the Advisory Council would help propagate the message. The World Brand Congress is a not-for-profit making activity aimed for professional growth and development.     I am sure you would be happy to be a part of World Brand Congress 2013”.

Speaking on his appointment Igbinidu said: “I am honoured to be chosen to be on the Global Advisory Council of the World Brand Congress. I am particularly elated because it is not a position that I struggled for, it is indeed a very huge honour to be selected to be on the Council made up of some of the brightest brains in brand management in the world.

“I am determined to discharge my new responsibilities creditably as I also see the appointment as an opportunity to network and learn from professionals from across industries and also share my experience”, he added.

One of the key features of the World Brand Congress will be Global Brand Excellence Awards. As an advisory member, Igbinidu will be responsible for helping to define the scope and guide the strategic content. He will also recommend professionals who may add value to the World Brand Congress.
