Smokey the Bear celebrated his 80th Birthday at Advertising Week.
The conference was held at the Penn District in New York City. Panels were held on different stages that were centered on the themes of scaling up, innovation, creativity, the marketplace, technology, media, great minds, podcasting, CMOs, excellence, and women’s empowerment.
There were many great exhibits as well. I enjoyed using Meta’s AI which turned me into Super Man and Iron Man.
Meta had great AI Ray Ban sunglasses that enabled me to use the internet for many tasks.
Attendees also had a chance to make their reels on Meta.
Advertising Week looked back and looked to the future as well. The founder of Advertising Week Matt Scheckner, shared how he started the conference with an idea. He shared his story from the parade in Times Square in 2004 to today; describing how Advertising Week grew to have a presence with conferences across the globe. Matt Scheckner assembled a panel of leaders from business and entertainers On a panel he shared with Susie Essman of Curb your Enthusiasm, Tim Armstrong, Kim Kellehner, and Claudio Romo Edelman. The panelists shared their journeys and their keys to success: embracing change and growing.
There were many panels about using AI, Data, Storytelling, Global Marketing, public speaking, pitching deals, and selling advertising. Additional panel pictures can be found on Instagram.
I learned so much. If you are interested in trends in advertising, marketing, AI, and beyond, attend Advertising Week.
