Seven editions later and we’re proud to host our 8th Digital Marketing, Advertising & Technology Confex (DMAT Confex 2026), bringing our digital marketing conference back to Singapore. We’ve run seven editions all around the world – Dubai, Malaysia and Singapore. If you belong in either of those industries – marketing, advertising or tech – and would love to find out where AI might overshadow you, then mark your calendars because our one-day marketing event promises more than 200+ Industry leaders from 72+ countries!
More than just talks, there will be 40+ speakers and 20+ discussions taking place throughout the day – some will be sharing insights and others will be hunting for clients, partners or vendors. So if you’re interested in learning more, drop us a line to let us know when to expect you at Our Venue!
Our conference theme in 2026 is Beyond Automation: Building the Agentic Marketing Enterprise, with the tagline Where AI Agents, Human Creativity & Intelligent Technology Transform Marketing, Advertising and Business. As we all now know, the role of AI in marketing today is primarily focused on automating simple and repetitive tasks but with the advent of Agentic AI, it doesn’t stop there anymore. Agentic AI systems have evolved to the point where they can read information, make decisions and perform actions that directly affect achieving specific business objectives – and people are working side by side.
Marketing teams worldwide are asking how much they should hand over to AI while keeping the creativity and decision-making that make their brands stand out. Our 2026 programme will explore how people and technology can work together to achieve business goals, use AI responsibly, and make better decisions with human oversight.
What will you learn? Explore topics such as Agentic AI, AI-powered customer experiences, generative AI, future advertising and responsible AI. Connect with industry professionals and learn more about the event through Let’s Connect.
