What are we looking for?
We're looking for global brand, disruptors + innovators to tackle this year's theme, 'Emerge Stronger'.

We don't want sales pitches, sanitised decks, meandering panels (that's right, no panels) and decks that are doing the rounds at other industry events. All sessions are no longer than 20 minutes. Your content should be punchy and to the point.

Our theme: Emerge Stronger
We’ve all experienced what disruption feels like in 2020.

But with disruption comes opportunity + us humans are a resilient bunch. Marketing has shown its metal with smart pivots, purpose, positive action, fast-turnaround innovation, ingenuity + new alliances.

This year’s MAD//Fest is all about how we can emerge from 2020 stronger + get back to growth - a place we all want to be.

We’ll be bringing together global brands, challengers, courageous marketers, creative leaders, tech pioneers and inventive mavericks to shine a light on how our industry can change the future. 

So forget the old rules. Pause and think about how we can do things better. Decide what kind of marketing industry we want in the future. Use this opportunity to put bold ideas on the table and get ready for action.

It’s going to be one helluva ride!

Important information & advice
We work with an advisory board of industry leaders and select submissions that will deliver genuine value for our audience of brands, agencies, publishers and tech leaders. 

We can't take incomplete submissions.

You must agree your content with MAD//Fest's Content Director prior to the event.

Solution & service providers

15% sessions are reserved for suppliers with genuine innovations, solutions and ideas who support MAD//Fest through sponsorship. We apply the same editorial principles to submissions from paid vendor sessions as the other 85% of independent sessions.

Agency/media/tech submissions: co-presenting clients

If you are an agency, media owner or tech provider and would like to be considered for a speaking lot at MAD//Fest, we strongly advise you to propose a brand client to speak alongside you. This is likely to be looked on favourably both in terms of selection, stage allocation and attendance at specific sessions.
