Now in its third year, the iMedia Brand Summit Australia is firmly established as the leading strategic conference for senior marketers in Australia and New Zealand. As part of the global series of iMedia events, the Summit showcases the latest international and local research, insights and thought-leadership.

The Summit is an exclusive, invitation-only event that brings together the most influential marketers and digital media professionals in ANZ for two days of unique learning and networking.  The emphasis of the Summit is on optimising the collaborative environment created by the world class speakers, delegates and program of activities.  The unique event format encourages delegates to share ideas, experiences & advice whilst extending their network of personal contacts. 

Taking place at the luxurious Cypress Lakes resort in the Hunter Valley, delegates escape the daily distractions of their office environments and spend two days and two nights focussing exclusively on the ever-changing world of digital marketing and advertising. For qualifying senior marketing executives attendance is complimentary as the Summit has been sponsored by a select group of market leading solution providers. Click here to request an invitation.

"It’s been an honour to be part of the successful iMedia series here in Australia & New Zealand. Last year’s event set the standard for digital marketing conferences; everyone I have spoken to found it to be the most beneficial two days out of the office of the year.

Once again I’ll be looking to provide delegates with outstanding chances to network with their peers and learn from some of the industry’s best. I’m looking forward to another exceptional event.” - Mike Weeding, Head of Digital Banking, Citibank

“Of the many conferences I've attended, the iMedia Brand Summit 2009 stands out as one of the most thought provoking. Key to the success of the event was the high calibre of presenters and delegates and the highly sociable and engagement atmosphere. I look forward to attending any future events by iMedia.” - Michael Sribney, Online Strategy and Planning Manager, AMP
