For the second year in a row, Marketing‘s editorial team has locked itself in the boardroom and fervidly deliberated on the Canadian marketing industry’s brightest young stars – not an easy task in a country so full of talent – to compile a list of the year’s best.
After many hours spent reviewing top notch applications, checking references and getting to know our potentials, we’re happy to unveil this year’s final 30 Under Thirty list.
