Your data stack is only as good as what you can prove. Industry leaders break down how to verify accuracy, assess recency, blend first- and third-party sources, and use that data to iterate and win in fragmented ecosystems. Plus: the measurement problem no one's solved yet: tracking campaigns across walled gardens that refuse to talk to each other.

Posting yesterday, programming today. As FAST, AVOD, and SVOD platforms invest in long-form creator-led content, the opportunity and complexity for brands just got bigger. What outcomes should brands actually expect from creators? How do you measure ROI when the old influencer playbook doesn't apply? We're breaking down how streaming changes the creator economy and where the smart money is moving.

Viewers don't care what you call the platform...they care about cost and convenience. CTV and FAST deliver on that promise, which is why ad dollars are flooding in. Top buyers break down how they're using data across the streaming landscape, what each platform reveals about viewer behavior, what's driving FAST adoption, and where the real opportunities and obstacles are.

PMPs were built to deliver precision: the right person, the right context, the right moment. But when you group them together, DSPs optimize for efficiency, not strategy. This session unpacks why the grouping problem is costing brands strategic value, how to think about PMP partnerships so each serves its intended purpose, and what's working when you treat them like partnerships.

They can tell when you're faking it. Gen Z and Alpha are the most diverse generations in U.S. history, and they don't just expect cultural relevance, they demand it. So what's the difference between a DEI checkbox and actual connection? How do you build culturally relevant media strategies that don't rely on stereotypes or vanity metrics? Leaders who've cracked the code share what real engagement looks like and how to measure it.

The media landscape doesn't wait for anyone. Expert forecasters and agency leaders reveal the macro trends defining 2026, how the creator economy and programmatic ecosystems will evolve, and what brands should be doing now to stay ahead. Spoiler: if you're waiting to see what happens, you're already behind.
