Future Media, Future Marketing is a one-day conference that brings business, industry and researchers together to look at the future of media, marketing and technology.

Transformations in media technologies and their uses have fundamentally changed the media environment and will continue to do so in the coming years. With developments in digital technologies challenging traditional approaches to media, these changes point to the interconnectedness of technological innovations, creative media production, shifting business models, and policy and regulatory frameworks.

Future Media, Future Marketing will explore the strategies and approaches that marketers, media producers and users have to navigate the future of digital media and what kinds of ethical frameworks may be necessary in this changing landscape.

  • New digital media marketing models
  • Digital media making and marketing
  • Disruptive strategies for digital media making
  • Future technologies and media
  • Ethics and future technologies
