AdExchanger’s Industry Preview to Explore Trends, Opportunities and Key Issues of 2018

The fifth annual Industry Preview, a conference that will deliver critical visions for the advertising and marketing technology space in 2018, is set to have its most exclusive, highest caliber speaker lineup and audience to date.

Kicking off this premier two-day conference is Scott Galloway, founder of L2 and professor of marketing at the NYU Stern School of Business, who will showcase why the traditional rules of business do not apply to the “big four” – Apple, Amazon, Facebook and Google – and how current and emerging companies can create their own opportunities.

  • Lindsay Pattison, Chief Transformation Officer for WPP and GroupM Global, leads a discussion on the Over-The-Top trend in 2018 with executives from Roku, Sling TV, DISH and Turner.
  • Brian Lesser, the new CEO of AT&T Advertising & Analytics, on his telecommunications company’s deepening strategy in marketing and technology.
  • Michael Roth, chairman and CEO of Interpublic, brings his holding company’s point-of-view on the year ahead.
  • Steve King, Publicis Media’s CEO, discusses the year ahead in media and the service layer.
  • JoAnn Ross, President and Chief Revenue Advertising Officer, reviews the broadcaster’s areas of interest in 2018.
