The DPP's 9th annual Leaders' Briefing, the media industry event of the year, brought together the supplier and content provider community for two days of valuable insights and high quality networking.
Senior executives from over 30 major media organisations each shared three priorities for the next year. It was the biggest and best Leaders' Briefing to date.
