On September 7 and 8, DMEXCO returns. Germany’s leading digital marketing trade fair will take place completely virtually once again due to the coronavirus pandemic. However, one look at the agenda shows that it will be no less exciting. With over 160 hours of content, we can expect a strong program mix in 2021 with exciting insights, practice-oriented masterclasses, and future-oriented keynotes.
Following this year’s motto, “Setting New Priorities”, the focus for the two days will not only be on current challenges but also on the future needs and potential of the advertising industry.
To help you build your DMEXCO schedule, we’ve selected a few of the most exciting sessions on the future of addressable advertising. And don’t worry if you can’t make it to all your favorite program content: All speeches and panel discussions will be available on the DMEXCO platform afterwards.
The following masterclasses and lectures will provide insights and discussion about the changing role of commerce, the rise of commerce media, a strategic approach to first-party data, and targeting in the mobile-first age:
Masterclass
From Sales Model to Shooting Star of the Advertising World: How Commerce Media is Changing the Role of Commerce
2021 is a year of upheaval that also marks a turning point for marketers and retailers. On the one hand, COVID-19 and its accompanying restrictions have fueled ecommerce and revitalized omnichannel concepts. On the other hand, the pandemic has ensured that a reimagining of retail must continue—and not only at the point of sale.
At the same time, the industry is preparing for the future of addressable advertising, in which first-party commerce data will take on a completely new significance.
In the DMEXCO Masterclass “From the sales model to the shooting star of the advertising world”, Corinna Hohenleitner, Country Director DACH at Criteo, Matthias Weth, CEO of SYZYGY Performance, and Max Melching, Vice President Online Marketing, Data Intelligence & Marketplace at Douglas, will talk about the changing role of commerce. They will shed practical light on the requirements and trends they are currently facing and how marketers can use commerce media to equip themselves for the new challenges today.
The event kicks off on Tuesday, September 7 at 12:40 p.m. EST in room MC5.
Note: This session will take place in the German language!
