How health and wellness marketing continues to evolve

One of the pandemic’s greatest lessons to marketers has been the importance of wellness, which has emerged as more than a trend and passing fad. Health and wellness has instead become a cornerstone of many marketing strategies as consumers look to brands to incorporate more mindfulness into their products.

At Ad Age Next: Health and Wellness on March 1, executives in the health and wellness sector will discuss how their brands have evolved during the pandemic, and where they are placing their marketing bets. The livestreamed event will explore strategies around growing challenger brands, innovations in food and the grocery aisle, and sexual wellness.
