The AUDIENCES Team Will Be Heading to Cannes Lions 2026
From retail media and CTV to privacy-first activation and independent technology, the AUDIENCES team will be joining industry conversations across Cannes Lions 2026.
Cannes Lions is nearly here, and the AUDIENCES team will be heading to the South of France this June for a week of industry conversations, meetings, events and catch ups across media, data and technology.
As ever, Cannes brings together brands, publishers, agencies, platforms and partners from across the global advertising industry, creating a unique opportunity to step away from the day-to-day and have the conversations shaping what comes next.
This year, those conversations feel particularly important.
Across the industry, there is growing focus on topics such as first-party data activation, interoperability, retail media, CTV, measurement and the role independent infrastructure will play in the future ecosystem. We’re looking forward to hearing different perspectives and sharing some of our own experiences working with brands and partners across privacy-first activation strategies.
For AUDIENCES, Cannes is not just about attending sessions or taking meetings. It is about connecting with the wider industry, strengthening partnerships and spending time with the people driving innovation across media and advertising.
Members of the AUDIENCES team will be attending meetings and events throughout the week, and we’re always happy to connect with others interested in discussing:
- First-party data activation
- Retail media infrastructure
- Publisher and advertiser collaboration
- CTV and omnichannel activation
- Privacy-first marketing strategies
- Independent and interoperable technology
We’re also looking forward to supporting and attending a number of partner and industry events taking place across the week.
And while the schedules may already be filling up, there is always room for the best part of Cannes... the conversations that happen in between.
If you’re attending Cannes Lions 2026 and would like to meet the AUDIENCES team, feel free to get in touch.
