We have two requirements of speakers: They must be subject-matter experts on the topic at hand, and they must be great presenters. Being a “good” speaker doesn’t cut it for us. For 2023, you can expect to hear fresh, new insights from the best of the best, whether they’re with pureplay Internet companies, local ad agencies, media companies, or top-level industry analysts. We will be adding speakers regularly between now and the conference.
