Event Details

The IPRS is pleased to present our IPRS PRISM Summit 2024 and invites you to participate in this much-awaited industry event. Following the successful inaugural event in 2022, the Summit has established itself as an excellent opportunity to learn from the best and build invaluable industry relationships.


Themed "PR: The Inside Out Perspective" IPRS PRISM Summit 2024 will be held on Thursday 24th October 2024, 08:30am to 2:30pm at the One Farrer Hotel, Ballroom 1.


We are going behind the scenes to unpack strategy and learn how things are done - from ideation to implementation.


The Summit this year shines the light on the best minds in our leaders and top professionals as they share their insights on business success and good communications practices.


There will be three pillars of focus: organisational leadership; communications strategy and social media engagement. Organisational success is built on our ability to gather and manage knowledge in response to the unique challenges of a highly social and connected world. The Summit covers a range of topics that impact our personal effectiveness and contributions to our teams.


What informs our decision making in a data-fuelled world?

Can we ace the news-making game?

Is the PR practitioner always in the hot seat?

When does a trending viral become a runaway train for communicators?


Held biennially, the PRISM Summit 2024 promises to be an action-packed half-day event, featuring two Keynote Fireside Qs & As, two Panel Discussions and a networking lunch with a diverse community of business leaders and dynamic professionals across industries.


Join us at our IPRS PRISM Summit 2024 on 24th October 2024 as we look at Public Relations from the inside out!


Whether you are a business leader or owner seeking to understand the strategic thinking of PR and communications or a practitioner looking to develop capability, this Summit is for you.


IPRS welcomes you to sign up early (preferential rates) and be a part of a vibrant summit. Please reach out to us at IPRS Secretariat: admin@iprs.org.sg for further enquiries
