A strategic briefing for senior marketers on winning the next era of digital media.
About this Event

AI is rewriting the rules of digital marketing and 2026 will be the year it truly changes everything.


The search and media landscape is evolving fast. Traditional SERPs are giving way to AI overviews, conversational search, and discovery that happens across social, video, and emerging channels. Meanwhile, competition across Google and Meta has never been higher, forcing marketers to think smarter, not spend harder.

Join Clicky and our partners ClickTech for AI or Die: The 2026 Media Landscape — a strategic event built for senior marketing leaders ready to take control of what comes next. 

We’ll explore how AI is reshaping search and performance marketing, why cross-channel integration is the new advantage, and which platforms are set to drive growth in 2026 and beyond. You’ll leave with a clear view of how to evolve your media mix and stay ahead.

What You’ll Learn

  • The Shifting Search Landscape From SERP overviews and AI answers to the rise of social and LLM-driven discovery. Learn how to adapt your strategy as search evolves into an intent ecosystem that spans across platforms.
  • K*ll the Silo: A New Cross-Channel Framework A proven model from ClickTech showing how integrated planning, unbiased channel selection, and smarter automation can unlock efficiency and growth. Plus, see how this approach applies across emerging channels.
  • Growing Channels & Untapped Audiences Discover where consumer attention is heading and how to use alternative platforms to diversify reach and find new audiences beyond the duopoly.
  • Real Case Studies, Real Results. See how Clicky clients are already using integrated, AI-informed strategies to maximise media performance and drive scalable ROI.
  • 2026 Predictions and the New Success Formula. We’ll close with a forward look at the 2026 media mix — and what success looks like in an AI-first world.
