dreams of the sun
I'm Glynn, director of adspeak. I grew up in the UK where grey skies inspired travel and I also wanted to get into advertising
It began in New York on Madison Avenue where I was lucky to land a job at EURO RSCG. Agency life moved quickly and I learned why it’s called the city that never sleeps. I worked on healthcare brands and a dot com or two. After nearly three years I was contacted by Havas in Sydney and left to work in Australia
With great people and great beaches I really enjoyed the experience. After two years it was finally time to give London a go and it was during my time at Y&R that I really learned the serious work of client service. Working on international brands like Bacardi and Land Rover we created some of the best and most awarded work around
A decade later Barcelona was too hard to resist and adspeak was formed. A place that combines language training with the advertising world. A place for industry professionals to improve their communication skills in a way that reflects life in a modern agency. In collaboration with friends from the industry, our courses are designed to be insightful, enjoyable and memorable
We’re here to help so If you have questions or ideas for yourself or your agency, contact us or come by for a coffee on our terrace; we’d be delighted to meet you
