TV ISN’T OVER, IT IS JUST OTT

As the Media Innovation Director for Tyson Foods, Trace Rutland is tasked with sorting through all the new toys and figuring out where they belong on the shelf.  TV isn’t new or a toy, but it is certainly changing.  Will the future be OTT or CTV or SVOD or vMVPD? Besides the alphabet soup of acronyms, will there be something called TV in a few years? What will consumers expect from an experience standpoint? How will advertisers change the way they think about TV and OTT planning and buying, measurement and brand safety? This session will look at the ways the TV landscape is evolving and how Tyson is leaning into that evolution.

WHAT EVERY MARKETER NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT VOICE

Voice has been a largely uncharted territory for marketers. In fact, 69 percent of marketers believe Voice is not the "next big thing." But our industry has a tendency to confuse revolution for evolution. So there is no confusion: Voice will be a revolution, and marketers need to be ready to navigate it. Hear from the experts at advertising agency 360i, as they share key learnings from their past year spent exploring the Voice landscape, building Voice skills and exploring its potential for disruption. Gleaning from 360i's recently published Voice Playbook, this session will equip marketers with actionable advice and tangible next steps for capitalizing on opportunities in Voice.

HOW MEDIA IS CHANGING FROM AN EXPENSE TO AN INVESTMENT FOR DRIVING BRAND GROWTH

Media and business metrics are becoming intertwined as a result of linking ad exposure to consumer response. Today, savvy marketers have figured out how to go beyond media metrics and integrate business metrics into the process of media planning and buying, across not only digital campaigns, but extending to their TV advertising.  As a result, media is being treated as an investment, not a cost. In this session, discover how this is elevating marketing impact across the brand.
