Yahoo! Canada and the editors of Marketing Magazine are showcasing the visions of some of our nation’s most accomplished marketing leaders.  We are getting their takes on how the art of marketing is changing, as well as how they are experimenting on the leading edge of Canada’s marketing and advertising landscape.

The Yahoo! Big Idea Chair symbolizes our ongoing commitment to recognize the pioneers of digital media. They might be enterprising clients or daring agency strategists, mercurial media gurus or someone whose role defies all traditional molds, and through a blend of though leadership, innovation and real-world accomplishment, they’ve gained our attention.  So to them, we yield the chair.
