Leaders' Briefing 2023

The DPP's 8th annual Leaders' Briefing is a conference and networking event bringing together the supplier and content provider community. It will take place in person in London.

Senior executives from over 30 major media organisations will share exclusive intelligence about their priorities. No other industry event provides so much focused insight in one place, all tailored to suppliers and content providers.

*Please note that this is an in person event only and will not be available to join online.*

The Leaders’ Briefing is a free-to-attend event for DPP members, which means we always have a certain number of people who register but don’t turn up. We have developed algorithms for this, which enable us to calculate the proportion of registered people that will attend.

Nevertheless to ensure immediate access to the Briefing please arrive early:

  • Registration opens at 0830
  • Late arrivals may experience a delay in their entry if we experience an exceptionally high turn up rate

Thank you.

If you experience any problems registering for DPP events or watching any online events, please contact events@thedpp.com.
