Become a MemberEvent Overview
New year, new trends? At our January Last Thursday Club, we’ll be focusing on what to expect in 2023 and bringing you a teaser of our upcoming research, IAB Compass. This is a new report that will map the future of digital advertising across four key areas: AR/VR, gaming, connected TV and shoppable ecommerce advertising. How are these channels evolving? And what do you need to know in order to harness them effectively? Join us as we preview some of the findings, plus hear from OMD's Vicky Fox and the7stars' Adam Chugg about their 2023 predictions.
As always, we’ll keep the presentation and discussions fast-paced so that you have plenty of time to catch up with your industry peers and meet new people. We created The Last Thursday Club after our members told us they wanted more opportunities to come together in person - it’s open to all IAB members and takes place between 5-7pm on the last Thursday of every month.
This event is now sold out.
