LEAD 2020
30 January 2020, Queen Elizabeth II Centre, Westminster, London
LEAD is the Advertising Association’s annual summit. Now in its ninth year, it is the premier event bringing together leaders in advertising, business and industrial policy as well as political opinion-formers and civil servants.
Theme: The new Age of Responsibility.
Advertising is under scrutiny by policy makers, by the public and by the people who work in our industry. Collectively, they are placing a greater set of expectations on advertising: how it is delivered, how it represents the world we live in and how it can bring positive change to society.
At LEAD 2020, we will ask how our industry can answer these expectations and what it means to be one of UK advertising’s responsible leaders.
