Home October Newsletter 2024 From SXSW success to data privacy, and the impact of AI on personalisation - October has been jam packed. October saw the highly anticipated return of SXSX Sydney and ADMA once again hosted a series of engaging and interactive panels covering trending topics like privacy, dark patterns and what the future marketer of 2030 looks like. If you missed out on our sold-out sessions, you can catch up on the insights here. October is also cyber security awareness month, so our next privacy series instalment explores the distinct difference between data privacy and data security. With AI continuing to dominate as a hot topic, we chatted to Ryan Bodger from Now We Collide for his insights on how AI is affecting personalisation. Then, Paul Sinkinson, Managing Director (ANZ) at Analytic Partners, shares his insights on how an obsession with real-time measurement kills campaigns and ROI. We also caught up with Katie Malone, Marketing Director of P&O Cruises, for our ADMA Spotlight where she shared how she’s driving the growth of Australia’s largest cruise business and bridging the gap between brand and performance marketing. We’re also introduced to the MarTech Mavericks, an Optimizely initiative aimed to address the diversity and gender bias in the technology industry. It’s a bumper edition with something for everyone.
