MediaCat Live returns to London on Wednesday 3 December. Get your FREE tickets now for an evening of media insights and (strictly optional) networking.
After the success of our first event in September, we’re getting ready to do it all over again — except bigger and insight-ier. Expect rigorous analyses of industry issues and trends, examples of whip-smart planning, research and expert views — all crammed into an hour’s worth of talks.
Line-up:
- More, please! MediaCat UK’s editor, James Swift, will give you a steer on what people in media and marketing can expect more of in 2026.
- Prophetic or pathetic? Leaders from EssenceMediacom London will hold their forecasting abilities up for scrutiny as they review their media predictions from the beginning of the year, and discuss what they got right and wrong — and why.
- Where human reactions become creative intelligence: DiO’s Ade Shannon and Simon Morris will talk about the shift that will redefine advertising, storytelling and audience connection.
- Have a humanistic Christmas: Havas Media strategy partner Hayley White will talk about the importance of taking a humanistic approach to creativity at Christmas, applying a human-experience lens to three festive ad campaigns.
- 6 Media Opportunities for 2026: MediaCat UK reporters Elliot Wright and India Stronach will share their calendar of under-the-radar events that could prove to be prime media opportunities in 2026.
The event will take place at Havas’s Kings Cross office in London on 3 December between 6pm and 8pm, and will include drinks, food and the chance to mingle with like-minded folks who understand the need for ideas that AI can’t reach…not by itself, anyway.
