MAD//Fest is back at the Truman Brewery on Brick Lane this July, and the esbconnect team will be there. If you are working in adtech, media or marketing, this is one of the best rooms in the UK to be in right now.
We have a space in the Adtech Hub Lounge across all three days. Come and find us, grab a coffee, and let us show you what we have been building.

Suz on stage: Tuesday 8 July, 10:50am
Our CEO and founder Suzanna Chaplin will be taking the stage on day one as part of the Blazing Challenges debate on the Female Leaders’ Club stage. The format is sharp: five speakers each get time to argue the case for their industry’s biggest unsolved problem, then the audience physically stands to vote.
Suz is making the case for inbox overload. How data marketing is overwhelming end users, eroding trust, and what the industry needs to actually do about it. If you care about the future of email as a channel, it is worth being in the room.
