New Digital Age has announced the first names for NDA Legends, a series of live podcast recordings taking place at Maison NDA during Cannes Lions.
Karen Stacey, 102nd President of WACL and CEO at Digital Cinema Media; Sir Martin Sorrell, executive chairman of S4 Capital; and Terry Kawaja, founder and CEO of LUMA Partners will kick off the week’s programme at Maison NDA, bringing decades of experience and strategic insight to the heart of the festival.
The NDA Legends series will be recorded in front of a specially-invited audience at Maison NDA, New Digital Age’s venue opposite Amazon Port and minutes from the Palais. Each session will feature in-depth, editorially driven conversations reflecting on the forces reshaping digital media, marketing, creativity and commerce.
Kicking off the festival week, Stacey, Sorrell and Kawaja represent three distinct but highly influential perspectives across the industry: leadership and advocacy at the highest levels of UK advertising, global transformation of agency models, and deep financial and structural analysis of the marketing ecosystem.
Their sessions will set the tone for the week, offering a dose of experience and insight to kick off the week’s programme at Maison NDA. .
Live conversations at the heart of Cannes
Maison NDA once again serves as a hub for the UK’s digital media and marketing community throughout Cannes Lions. Located at the centre of the action, the venue will host a week of podcasts, roundtables, panels, editorial activity and networking events.
The NDA Legends recordings will take place in the on-site studio space, in front of select invited audiences, providing the intimacy of a private conversation with our industry’s leading voices.
These sessions will complement NDA’s wider Cannes programme, which includes the NDA Cannes Roundtable Debates led by editor-in-chief Justin Pearse. Topics across the week include AI in action, CTV, the future of retail media, native advertising and branded content, programmatic advertising and the evolving role of social media in advertising and commerce.
Each roundtable will be written up in full following the festival and featured across NDA’s Cannes coverage, alongside daily reporting, social content and photography from the Croisettegy.
Further speakers for Maison NDA’s programme, will be announced in the coming weeks.
Registration will open soon for all the week’s events.
