Laura Cassidy

Chair

Laura Cassidy is currently a Manager in Accenture Song. Laura graduated from Trinity College Dublin with a degree in Business, Economics, and Social Studies and, after a brief stint in management consulting, moved into the content & creative space within Accenture Song. In this time, she has had the opportunity to work with a range of global clients as well as the amazing team at Droga5 Dublin to develop, create, and manage a wide variety of content within Accenture Song’s growing Content Studio. This type of work opened Laura up to the advertising and marketing industry in Ireland and led her to compete in Cannes Young Lions 2022, in which she and her creative partner won the Media Category and went on to represent Ireland in the global competition. Laura’s role allows her to hone her leadership and managerial skills while flexing her creative muscles and building her passion for all things ad-world in Ireland. Laura is looking forward to working with the Future Council to create opportunities that open up the advertising & marketing industry in Ireland to new audiences and to empower those beginning their careers.
