Marklives.com launched in 2012 as a journalism-driven alternative to existing advertising and marketing trade media in South Africa. It actively invests in journalism and good old-fashioned journalistic systems and processes, including editing, subbing and fact-checking. It has become known for presenting a fresh, independent and investigative view of southern Africa’s changing communication landscape, as well as for the depth of its insights section, and is the go-to source for breaking industry news.
The team at MarkLives believes in covering a broad spectrum of industry businesses, both small and large, and the full diversity of its people. As part of its commitment to telling the stories of women, we celebrate remarkable women leaders in our annual #AgencyLeaders Women of the Year poll. Until we achieve gender parity at senior management level, it will play a role in punching out the glass ceiling women shouldn’t be subjected to in the first place.
