Want to get more out of your digital audio and video advertising? Who better than to share the benefits, opportunities and creative potential of these channels than their most passionate advocates - the people who work within them. At this new event, we’ll bring together IAB UK members to share their passion for each area and how advertisers can realise their full potential.
Join members of our Video Steering Group and Audio Advisory Group as they take to the virtual stage to wax lyrical about the power of sound and the possibility of film. No slides or graphs, just passionate talks, the chance to hear how audio and video work so well together and the opportunity for all attendees to add their point of view into the mix as well.
