ExchangeWire to partner with Seedtag at Cannes

We’re at Cannes this year, with CEO Rachel Smith joining Seedtag for a special edition of AdTech Heroes.

Cannes is calling, and ExchangeWire will be hitting La Croisette. This year, we’re delighted to be partnering with Seedtag for a special panel episode of the AdTech Heroes podcast, streamed live from Cannes.

Dal Gill, VP of Global Partnerships at Seedtag, will be joined by Rachel and a stellar panel of industry experts for an in-depth discussion: ‘Beyond the Labels: Breaking Stereotypes in Advertising.’ The session will dive into the complexities of advertising, providing a platform to discuss the transformative potential of inclusive and diverse messaging.

"I’m really excited to be taking part in this panel. Inclusivity is so important across our industry, and I’m looking forward to joining Dal and my fellow panelists to discuss how we can reshape the industry and understand the complexities of the issue"
