Despite the session taking place after lunch, the audience was extremely engaged by the topic and the panelists.  Panelists did not agree on many points (particularly d’exposito’s Gloria Constanza and GroupM’s Mebrulin Francisco were involved in relatively heated argument).  Lisa Torres, president Multicultural at Publicis Media, participated in a related session.  Below are key excerpts on what the panelists had to say:
