The creator economy is booming, becoming a cornerstone of how audiences discover, trust and connect with brands. At IAB UK’s Creator Marketing Growth Summit, we’re putting creators, platforms and advertisers' side-by-side to explore how this channel delivers impact, from creative collaboration and campaign craft to measurement, governance and long-term brand building. 

This is IAB UK’s biggest-ever event dedicated to creator marketing, uniting brands, agencies, platforms and creators to explore how the channel can drive measurable impact and build meaningful connections. 

Expect fast-paced case studies, live creator content, and high-energy discussions on everything from campaign planning and measurement to regulation and the realities of the creator economy. We’ll put creators on stage, brands in the spotlight, and tackle the real-world challenges holding the industry back, from messy briefs to measurement myths. 

Fresh, fun and forward-looking, the Creator Marketing Growth Summit will ask: What’s next for the creator economy, and how do we get there together?  

Who is the Creator Marketing Growth Summit for?

Creators: who want to learn about the latest innovations in the industry and network with peers

Advertisers: major brands learning how to integrate creators effectively across marketing objectives 

Agencies: from creator specialists to traditional shops building new creator teams 

• Publishers and Platforms: discovering how creators can accelerate growth across channels like TV+ and retail media 

Walk away ready to elevate your creator approach, with ideas you can apply immediately and a clearer view of where the creator economy is heading next.
