_WHY FORESIGHT?
As thoughts turn from this year’s execution to next year’s planning, understanding what the year ahead holds is vital to ensuring an effective strategy.
To keep you ahead of the curve, the team at New Digital Age has created Foresight, an event that will tackle four of the biggest topics in the industry that will dominate the year ahead.
As the schools return so does the industry, so we are kicking off 2024 in September with an event built around informing a curated audience of the people who make decisions that impact your business.
This audience will be made up of senior decision makers and industry influencers from across media owners, media agencies and advertisers, all of whom will be looking for insights from the participating partners.

_THE DAY ITSELF
New Digital Age knows what the industry is reading, so we understand the questions that the industry is currently asking.
Here’s more detail on the four keynote topics that will take place during the inaugural Foresight.
Programmatic advertising has continued to grow and evolve at a startling rate, with changes to regulations and privacy, the expanding opportunities brought through new platforms and the much heralded death of the cookie there has never been a better time to sit down and update your knowledge with help from our keynote speaker Zuzanna Gierlinska, Chief Growth Officer of GroupM Nexus.
When you think of innovation, what comes to mind? Cutting edge technology? A disruptor brand? A technology visionary?
Innovation is the shared mindset of the Digital World, but how can you harness it to transform your marketing strategy to support your business goals and delight consumers? Discover how to embrace innovation with Microsoft Advertising as we take a deep dive into the latest trends and technologies that help you create, connect and motivate consumers.
Join us and get inspired! Together we can shape the future of the digital world.
Measuring the success of a campaign was once as simple as checking for sales uplift but, times have changed and awareness, recognition and attention all have a part to play. So where do we go next for measurement? Is attention the golden metric, what else should you be considering when assessing your ROI?
CTV, FAST, AVOD, SVOD, ATV, these acronyms are core to the industry but do they mean anything to audiences and consumers?
Our fireside chat with Steph Miller of Publica followed by a panel of industry luminaries will debate the future of advertising as linear and digital platforms grow closer and look at how advertisers and media owners can make the most from this exciting area.
