Why attend?

Over 80% of attendees would recommend
NexTech to a colleague.

First off, I was surprised that NexTech 2019 was the inaugural conference ... I came out of the conference with a better understanding of the industry that I can apply in my current role. I also was able to network with potential business partners that can help with some of our business problems.

Global Digital Analytics and Optimization Strategy, Hyatt

Adweek NexTech provided top-notch speakers, and relevant and timely content in a cozy, friendly and warm environment. I learned a lot, was exposed to great companies and made really good connections. I definitely recommend attending for marketers who want to be at the forefront of the industry.

Director of Marketing, Moneytree

Overall, I thought it was a fantastic event and kudos to your team at Adweek not only for attracting such an all-star caliber roster of speakers, but also being so thoughtful and cognizant of stitching together a narrative for the conference over the 2 days.

Vice President, Business Development, IBM

Adweek NexTech is an interesting alternative to the existing conferences in market—exciting to see such a large and well-known publication embracing the technology aspect!

Head of Programmatic Advertising, Flipboard

Calling All Female Nerds

Wednesday, December 2 | 1:10-1:30pm ET

Increasing the number and profile of women in data and technology roles remains a persistent struggle. Few young women believe STEM professions are for them...further exacerbating the shortage that exists in our industry, hitting a crisis level, at a time when we’ve never needed them more.


New realities brought on by the pandemic and economic shifts have made data and technology even more critical for marketers. Join Catalina’s Chief Marketing Officer Marta Cyhan-Bowles and GroupM Global Chief People Officer Jennifer Remling as they sit down with Adweek to talk about embracing your inner nerd and becoming marketing, data and technology trailblazers at your organizations.

The State of Equality

Wednesday, December 2 | 2:50-3:10pm ET

Women are pushing boundaries, breaking glass ceilings, and emerging as the strongest leaders. So, why do we continue to face barriers because of our gender? Shelley Zalis, CEO of The Female Quotient, explores how to take equality from an ideal to the reality, in our workplaces and the world at large.

Creating Space for People to Flourish

Wednesday, December 2 | 2:00-2:20pm ET

As racism and the movement for social justice permeated all aspects of society this year, employees across corporate America looked to their companies to take action. They wanted more diversity, greater inclusion and statements of support from leadership. Helene Silverman, Chair of the Inclusion & Diversity Steering Committee at Kantar in North America, felt that her colleagues needed something more. Thinking about the company mission: Understand People, Inspire Growth, Helene turned that inward to focus on employees and created a genuine safe space for employees to share, listen and help one another grow.
Beginning the week after the murder of George Floyd on May 27, her weekly “Safe Space Sharing Sessions” opened up a new kind of conversation among employees, about race and many other aspects of diversity and inclusion.
