I’m sorry to report that highly esteemed marketing and PR executive Peter Hoagland has died. The cause of his death was Glioblastoma (cancer of the brain), an illness he fought since his retirement four years ago. Hoagland’s 40+ year career in consumer electronics – where he helped an almost uncountable number of brands achieve greater success – has resulted in his influence reaching far and wide throughout our industry. Many industry folks know Peter and know him well, as evidenced by the many tributes to him popping up all over social media.
