This Monday the advertising world will descend on New York City for IAB MIXX,OMMA Global and Advertising Week. During the day, industry heavy-hitters will discuss what digital, mobile and social media mean for the future of advertising. At night, they’ll network (read: party like Mad Men.)
Some of the week’s hottest tickets have one thing in common: Yahoo!. We’ll be hosting panels and workshops led by the likes of Hilary Schneider, Blake Irving and Elisa Steele. We’ll unveil new Yahoo! product innovations and share all our latest research insights.
But it won’t be all work and no play for Yahoo!. We’ll have a picture booth in Times Square and even a Yahoo! hot dog cart stationed around the city. So, pretty much, we’ll be taking over Manhattan and painting the town purple.
Wondering how you can keep up with all the Yahoo! fun? Our Yahoo!-specific guide to Advertising Week 2010 has you covered. Here’s a full rundown of sessions and cocktail parties that Yahoo! will be hosting throughout the week. Come listen and learn or mingle and celebrate with us.
