Fast 10: Anna Hodgson On What It Takes To Build A Lasting Agency (opens the original)
Read excerpt
With more than a decade at the helm of Scooter, Anna Hodgson has grown the agency from its early days into an operation spanning creative, retail and beyond, all while keeping it’s independence in tact. As CEO, Hodgson has steered the agency through a rapidly changing industry and in 2025 was named as a Marketing Scholar in recognition of that leadership. In this week’s Fast 10, B&T’s very own David Hovenden and Hodgson chat all things AI, free pitching and what it takes to build a business that

Read excerpt
B&T is in Sápmi, northern Norway, with the Australian delegation to the World Indigenous Broadcasters Network conference. In this latest dispatch we talk to Aili Keskitalo, former president of the Sámi Parliament. Read our other coverage with SBS’ Tanya Denning-Orman; and Chief of War actor Kaina Makua.

'Language Was Chief On Set': What The World's Indigenous Broadcasters Actually Built In The Arctic (opens the original)
Read excerpt
B&T travelled to Karasjok in northern Norway as part of the Australian delegation to the annual World Indigenous Broadcasters Network conference. Part one looked at how SBS’ Tanya Denning-Orman spent a year rebuilding the machinery. This is part two. When Jason Momoa asked Kaina Makua to play Kamehameha in Chief of War, Makua said no. He’s a Hawaiian farmer, teacher, father, coach, language advocate and community leader. The ledger was full. What eventually turned him wasn’t the profile or the p
'A Waiting Game Over Whose Iceberg Melts First': David Droga On Holding Companies, AI & Why Creatives Should Be Running The Show (opens the original)
Read excerpt
He traded 25 per cent of an agency for a rug, ran a $20 billion company without a university degree, and bought the domain names Droga1 through Droga6 purely to spite his brothers. Now, in his 40th year since being named the top AWARD School student, advertising’s most decorated creative is “not in the centre — by choice”. The industry should still be listening very carefully. David Droga doesn’t do many rooms in person anymore. So when the Accenture vice chair — the kid from AWARD School’s clas
