Marketing and Publicity Conference 2023

09:00 - 18:00

M&P CONFERENCE
In Person and Online

In marketing and publicity, things don’t always go to plan. None of us have enough time, the possibilities of how we can do our jobs are both endless and limited, the routes to readers are proliferating on one side and shrinking on the other, and audience expectations an ever-shifting goalpost.

 

The 2023 conference helped us get to the core of what our campaigns need and who our readers are in a swirl of busy-ness - with talks, panels and surgeries on everything from brands to bookshops, events to AI.

 

Be the first to find out about our inspirational speakers, practical topics, resourceful workshops and surgeries.
