Advertising Reimagined

The Beet Retreat, one of the advertising industry’s most talked about gatherings of high-level media executives, will take place at the Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes, California from November 12-14, 2025.

These are extraordinary times for the advertising industry:


• CTV has raised the bar on live events, shoppable TV and innovative ad formats that enhance viewer experience, proving to be a real game changer for advertisers.


• Programmatic advertising expands into premium content and gaming.


• With AI driving innovation, buyers and sellers have shifted into “launch and learn” mode, exploring novel ways to engage consumers. 


• As retail and commerce media grow exponentially, brand marketers are emerging as both media buyers and media owners.


• In the cookie-optional era, publishers and advertisers are leaning into first-party data and contextual advertising solutions.


Beet.TV’s LA Retreat presents an opportune time for the leading minds in media to address the rapidly changing advertising space and to share what’s new and next.


Programming will officially kick off Wednesday, November 12 at 4 p.m. and conclude Friday November 14 at noon. We will host a reception on Tuesday, November 11, as well as our Annual Golf Outing and other Leisure Activities on Wednesday for those that plan to arrive early.


Over the course of the three days, the Retreat will feature a mixture of off-the-record fireside chats, curated panels, and breakout discussions seeded by questions from both speakers and attendees.

Charting Change: Where Media Investment Goes From Here

The media investment landscape is undergoing seismic change as marketers rethink how, where, and why they allocate spend across screens, platforms, and partners. Economic pressure, measurement fragmentation, and shifting audience behaviors are forcing new definitions of efficiency and effectiveness. This session brings together leading agency executives to explore where budgets and trends are headed next—and how smarter data, automation, and creative accountability will shape the next chapter of media value.

Why Premium Publishing Matters

 

As programmatic media buying matures, the gap between premium and low-quality supply has never been clearer. In this session, The Trade Desk’s Will Doherty will unpack how quality signals, real-time data, and transparency standards are helping direct ad dollars toward trusted, high-value publishers. Learn why smarter supply strategies are shaping a healthier, more effective open internet — where quality wins every time, creating wins for publishers and advertisers.

Signals & Standards: Aligning Buyer Needs, Publisher Priorities, and Industry Realities

The TV and video marketplace is at a crossroads. Upfronts provide publishers with revenue visibility and buyers with negotiating power; digital buying brings audiences, optimization, and flexibility. But neither path feels complete in a world where CTV has become the “No. 1 must-buy category,” according to the IAB’s 2025 Video Ad Spend Report. The session breaks down how CTV buying is evolving, what each side truly values, and how performance standards will shape the future.

Leveraging Contextual Data to Bring Clarity and Control to CTV

A decade in, it’s clear that CTV is the future of television. Audiences now spend more time with CTV than live, traditional TV, and ad investments are following suit. Many of those dollars, however, aren’t generating meaningful returns. That’s because audience-based targeting can’t deliver the scale that marketers need to grow their brands. This session will explore how content attributes, such as genre, live sports and TV premieres, can provide media buyers with the transparency they need to achieve scale, drive campaign efficiency, reach new audiences and ensure brand safety.

The Future of Retail Media is the Future of All Media

Retail media’s history as a performance channel has meant it doesn’t always get the attention it deserves from CMOs and media agencies. What they may not realize is that the future of retail media is the future of all media. It’s not only a channel but a layer that will drive the evolution of every major digital ad market—including search, display, social, CTV, and DOOH. Join retail media expert Andrew Lipsman as he shares what’s next in retail media as it moves up the funnel and into the store.

How Live Sports and Global Events are Rewriting the Media Playbook

 

Live sports and tentpole events are the heartbeat of the media industry, commanding attention, driving cultural relevance and delivering unmatched engagement for brands. As viewing habits evolve and technology transforms the fan experience, new opportunities are emerging—from shoppable moments and immersive streaming to dynamic ad innovations and data-driven storytelling. In this fireside chat, Mark Marshall, Chairman of Global Advertising and Partnerships at NBCUniversal, home to Super Bowl LX and Winter Olympic Games in 2026, shares insights on redefining what’s possible at the intersection of live, cross-platform content, premium partnerships and global scale.

How Publishers and Buyers can Work Together to Diminish CTV Fragmentation

The promise of Programmatic CTV hits a wall where the stakes are highest. Premium, high-value inventory—from live sports to major events—still relies heavily on direct deals and traditional insertion orders, creating fragmentation for both buyers and publishers. To truly achieve programmatic scale, the industry must evolve its operational backbone. This session cuts through the noise to detail the essential path forward, focusing on the three pillars required to merge the efficiency of programmatic with the demands of premium video: pricing protection, accurate forecasting and fast, dependable ad serving. Join us to learn how to transition past fragmented legacy deals and capture the full potential of CTV programmatically.

Making Streaming Work Harder: Data, Insights & Accountability

As streaming and digital investments surge, media buyers face the challenge of measuring performance across fragmented platforms where transparency is limited and standards are still evolving. Yet this same complexity creates new opportunities: advanced, privacy-safe data and measurement insights can help validate outcomes, optimize spend, and build more accountable cross-platform strategies. This session will explore how brands and buyers can navigate the obstacles while seizing the potential of a more data-driven, evidence-based marketplace.

With uniquely engaged, diverse audiences and emerging programmatic capabilities, gaming presents fresh opportunities for data, measurement and creative innovation that go beyond the banner ad. This session will explore how gaming is poised to become a player in programmatic advertising and audience strategy, reshaping how marketers connect with consumers in immersive, high-attention environments.

The great rebundling of streaming content is happening - content owners are optimizing as they manage the costs to support their apps as consumer adoption increases. But as streaming and commerce converge, the next frontier is clear: it’s time to bundle the technology. Fragmented ad tech stacks, inconsistent user experiences, and disconnected engagement tools create friction and waste for brands, publishers, and viewers alike.
