NEW YORK, Jan. 20, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB), the digital media and marketing trade association, announced today the final schedule for its annual industry agenda-setting event, Annual Leadership Meeting (ALM) on February 7-10.
"Now — right now — is the time to drive real progress on issues that have been on our collective 'to-do' list far too long. At this year's ALM, we are calling on industry leaders across the digital ad ecosystem to gather, roll up our sleeves, and charter a path to the future," said David Cohen, CEO, IAB. "Let's move past incremental change and lift this industry to new heights."
This year's theme, "Vision and Decisions," calls upon industry leaders to commit to action, to collaborate on a vision for the future, and make the decisions that are required to bring that vision to life for the entire advertising industry. The first three days of ALM will take place live in-person convening at 225 Liberty Street, New York, as well as be streamed to a virtual audience, and conclude virtually on the final day. The health and safety of IAB's members, event attendees, and staff remain IAB's top priority. All in-person attendees will be required to show proof of full vaccination, produce a negative COVID-19 test result prior to entering, and comply with IAB's Event and COVID-19 Policy and Code of Conduct.
"ALM is not just another event to share opinions. We are addressing real concerns such as currency and measurement in a lively debate with leaders from Nielsen, Comscore, and VideoAmp," added Cohen. "We are focused on decision-making and advancing each day's conversations to align, set the direction, and deliver on those outcomes that will hold the industry accountable."
