Big Think at BAFTA 2022
We headed over to BAFTA once more on the morning of Tuesday 14 June for the return of Big Think.
You will soon be able to watch all the sessions on-demand.
Every so often at Thinkbox we stop beating the magnificent drums of TV advertising for an entire morning. Instead, we invite a host of magnificent thinkers from all sorts of backgrounds and disciplines on to the stage at BAFTA to play thought-provoking rhythms on all manner of drums.
We call it Big Think, and with good reason. This year, Big Think returned with a cast that deserved the mother of all drumrolls…
