Australia’s #1 MarTech conference
Technology driven marketing and advertising continues to reinvent the ways in which brands engage and influence consumers in the moments that matter most. However, as consumer expectations continue to evolve, and with an increased focus on customer empowerment, brands need to differentiate effectively, and engage with their customers how, when, and where they want.
Navigating the ever evolving martech landscape to identify new technologies and work with new data sources to better understand, reach and engage your customers is often daunting and confusing. With such a wide choice of solutions and partners, how do marketers know what works and what doesn’t? How do they ensure they’re making the correct investments for future-growth?
Join us at the Marketing Tech Symposium to:
Discover how to use marketing technology to better understand, reach and engage your customers
Learn from inspiring international keynote presentations and local case studies
Connect with the leading brands and solution providers in a sophisticated and relaxed environment in the Hunter Valley.
Learn, network, socialise and dine with the most influential executives in the region and return to the office with a Marketing Tech action plan.

10 TIMES BETTER It’s at least 10 times better from my perspective, the agenda is crafted around the current challenges and things that are going to help us as marketers.
Silpa Haria - Head of Digital marketing Technologies and Innovation
FANTASTIC QUALITY OF ATTENDEES The quality of attendees has been fantastic. If I think about some of the people that I’ve had a chance to meet over the past two days, they’ve been senior marketing leaders and marketing technology leaders inside some of the largest Australian brands. Examples of those would be National Australia Bank, IAG, Griffith Uni. These are people that are actually involved in influencing or directly making decisions over their media or marketing investment.”
Ben Sharp - Regional Director ANZ, Audience Studio and AdTech
BALANCE OF IMPORTANT TOPICS It strikes a balance of important topics but also with a lightness. Everyone is really willing to socialise and share earnings which is really good. It doesn’t feel forced.
Fabrizia Roberto - Chief Growth Officer
CONVERSATIONS THAT WEREN’T IN BEFORE We’ve actually got ourselves into seven conversations that we weren’t in before. That’s seven projects that we didn’t know about, so even if one of those comes off, the ROI will be at least 5X the sponsor fee. That’s definitely been worth it.
Peter Belton - VP Sales, ANZ
CALIBRE OF PRESENTERS & THE NETWORKING OPPORTUNITY Very pleased to get here because of the calibre of presenters, the networking opportunity and the fact we get the opportunity to have a good look at MarTech, AdTech and the leaders in that space to guide us on our journey.
John Chalmers - Chief Marketing and Communication Officer
