From Waiting on the Table to Sitting at it

The best in-house creative teams don't wait to be invited into the room. They build the case, earn the trust, and take the seat. Taylor Erin, ECD and Head of Creative at Instacart, shares how she took Local Produce from a design fulfillment department to Ad Age's In-House Agency of the Year and the team behind two back-to-back Super Bowl campaigns — by building a creative function with impact far beyond traditional marketing needs.

StoryTeching with AI: Not Just Another Talk About Storytelling

Technology continues to revolutionize the ways brands bring stories to life, creating a world where machines, digital platforms, data, and brand narratives converge to deliver value, solutions, and experiences in innovative new ways that communicate stories across both digital and physical realms.

Welcome to the world of Phygital StoryTeching.

The star of this world these days is undoubtedly AI. Much of the conversation focuses on how AI accelerates the craft and execution of ideas, or on the rapid evolution of generative AI itself.

This talk shines a spotlight on a different side of the equation: the role AI can play in the story itself. Rather than exploring how AI can help create executions, we will explore how AI can become an integral part of the idea - not as a production tool, but as a storytelling ingredient. By deconstructing and decoding recurring thinking patterns embedded in award-winning creative work featuring AI, we will reveal practical frameworks for generating ideas where technology and AI amplify stories about people, not just stories about technology.

In other words, this session is not about using AI to create stories. It’s about creating stories with AI.

12:00 pm - 12:50 pm

She is based in New York, and has called Spotify home since 2019.

Spotify: The Influence and Impact of Fandom

Culture isn't just created; it's ignited and propelled by fans. From global artists that inspire devoted audiences to podcast creators whose fandoms go beyond listening, fandoms are the vibrant engines where culture truly comes to life. Join Mary Johnson, Head of NA Creative Intelligence at Spotify's Creative Lab, to hear why fandoms have become so powerful, why they’re not merely target audiences and how brands can tap into fandoms for long lasting impact on culture.

Unleashing Creativity Within

How do you make a $200bn corporation more creative from the inside? From nothing to in-house agency of the year and over 70 global awards in 5 years, I'll provide you with some insight on how to achieve creative excellence from within a corporate tanker and build an in-house agency from scratch.

I’ll unpackit and give you an insight into the "how" by providing:

-The four C’s cheat-sheet

-Real examples of the challenges and how we overcame them

-How to infiltrate the corporate acronym language with creativity

2:40 pm - 3:25 pm

Round Table Discussions

Tim Harkins

Stephany Sperberg

The Art of Splitting the Creative Workload

Frameworks for deciding when to "build vs. buy." Should the external agency handle the big, flashy brand campaigns while the in-house team handles high-volume performance assets? Or vice versa? Discuss the most effective models for dividing the work without stepping on each other's toes.

Roger Sho Gehrmann

The Sound of Social: Why Your Brand's Most Important Audio Doesn't Live in Ads

For years, brands have invested in sonic branding for advertising. But today, brands are heard far more often through social content than traditional campaigns. Every day, marketing teams publish hundreds of videos powered by music, yet few have any strategy for how those musical choices shape brand perception.

While visual identity is tightly governed, audio is often left to chance.

This session explores why brands need to move beyond sonic logos and start building sonic systems: practical frameworks for creating a consistent, culturally relevant and legally compliant sound across social, creator content and every touchpoint where their brand is heard.

Mack Garrison

The Future of In-house + Agency Collaborations

As creative teams evolve, so must the relationships that power them. Join an interactive conversation around brand stewardship, navigating ambiguity, and the power of relationships when it comes to success stories and failures as we look to the future of these partnerships.

Paige Hudson

Scaling Creative Excellence - Redefining Modern Marketing Teams

Creative teams are under pressure to move faster, create more, and stay on brand—with fewer resources. AI can help, but only when paired with the right talent and workflows. This roundtable will discuss how AI drives efficiency, redefines roles, and highlights the need to certify creatives in AI skills. Participants will explore how AI is reshaping creative work, the essential skills for the future, and strategies to balance automation with human creativity while maintaining brand integrity.

3:30 pm - 4:20 pm

Nico Poalillo

Global Creative Development

Nico Poalillo is a creative executive and business director whose work spans film, brand strategy, live experience, and the tools and technology reshaping how creative work gets made. Over the past decade he has built studios from scratch, scaled global partnerships, and delivered measurable commercial impact for clients including Apple, General Motors, Adobe, Nike, and Formula 1. He understands the creative side and the infrastructure side, how AI-assisted pipelines, real-time workflows, and global studio models actually function at scale, and how to lead the people who build them.

He has spent equal time in production and in the boardroom, working directly alongside CMOs, CCOs, and global brand leadership to shape not just the work but the strategy behind it. The ability to move fluidly between those worlds, and to be taken seriously in both, is what makes the work land the way it does. Educated at the University of Michigan, University of Wisconsin, and Harvard Business School, his foundation is equal parts creative instinct and commercial rigor.

How Creativity Made People Care About Crypto

A few years ago, a brutal bear market left the crypto market and its reputation in a precarious position. At the same time, many folks didn't even understand the product itself. So how do you get people to root for something while also educating? The answer is creativity.

Is Your Brand a Zombie?

A deadly disease is spreading. One that robs brands of their appeal and devours their soul. Under an endless onslaught of swiping, scrolling, and spam, too many brands have been hollowed out by technology. John Long explains how this happened and why it matters. You’ll not only learn the three unmistakable behaviors of Zombie Brands, you’ll leave the session armed with the prescription that keeps your brand healthy, human—and impossible to ignore.

We’re Going To Need a Bigger Boat Plan.

As we continue to grow in our careers in the creative space, so does the scope, the responsibilities, your team and more than likely so will your plan needed to be successful. Instead of creating dope work you’ll be leading the dope work. In this session we’ll speak to how do we stay close enough to the work to stay informed but not too far in the weeds to own the big picture. How do we make sure our team feels seen and heard while our leadership feels confident and informed on your decisions. It’s a delicate dance at times but what’s a good party without a good dance?

Jay’s dedication to the agency’s unorthodox approach to talent sourcing, to honing in on the reality that great ideas come from passionate employees, and his drive to deliver First & Only ideas has led to bold ideas that make brands unforgettable—like Capital One’s “Chuck Blimp” during the Final Four, Pizza Hut’s “Hold for Wings” song, or Stanley’s president responding on TikTok to a viral car fire video.

Alyssa Georg

Alyssa Georg

ECD and Head of Creative Integration
Expedia Group

Alyssa Georg is the Executive Creative Director and Head of Creative Integration at Expedia Group, where she oversees the creative development and stewardship of global brand campaigns across Expedia, Hotels.com, and Vrbo. Following Expedia Group’s shift away from an internal agency model, she built the Creative Integration function from the ground up. She created the operating model that supports brand teams, agency and production partners, as well as integrates emerging AI workflows to deliver distinctive, consistent creative at scale.

Before joining Expedia Group, Alyssa spent her career at agencies including 72andSunny and Droga5, leading award-winning work for brands such as Huggies, Audible, Etsy, REI, and Google. Her work has been recognized by Cannes Lions, D&AD, The One Show, Effies, Clios, Webbys, and Ad Age.

At Expedia Group, she brings that same creative ambition to the long game of building enduring global brands, with a belief that top-tier agency craft and in-house scale are more powerful together than either is alone.

Great Work Needs a Great Home: A Partnership That Handles the Hard Stuff

Vrbo believes the right home creates the conditions for people to connect, relax, and have better experiences. The same is true of creativity: Great work needs an environment where ideas can grow, be challenged, and ultimately become stronger. Expedia Group’s Alyssa Georg and GSD&M’s Jay Russell offer an honest look at building that kind of creative home between a brand and agency, from navigating 48 rounds of creative and team changes to improving feedback and making difficult decisions together. They’ll explore why great partnerships aren’t built by avoiding friction, but by establishing enough trust, candor, and shared ambition to work through it, and keep pushing until both the work and the partnership are better.

2:25 pm - 3:10 pm

Sophie Gold

Sophie Gold

Founder
ELEANOR

Sophie Gold is the founder and president of ELEANOR, a global commercial production company with offices in Santa Monica and London’s Soho. Under her leadership, ELEANOR has rapidly become one of the industry’s most talked-about creative companies, earning recognition including Ad Age’s 2024 Production Company to Watch, a return to the Ad Age A-List in 2025, and Gerety’s 2025 Production Company of the Year. It is also the first and only certified female and Black-owned commercial production company in the United States.

Known for her instinct for talent, taste, and world-building, Sophie has built ELEANOR into a company where directors are developed with long-term vision and where craft, emotion, and cultural relevance coexist. Her work spans commercials, branded content, music videos, documentaries, entertainment, and emerging creative platforms, collaborating with brands including Walmart, Coca-Cola, Disney, Activision, Samsung, Pure Leaf, DoorDash, Garmin, and the US Army.

In 2025, Sophie launched della, an always-on creative studio designed for high-speed, high-craft brand storytelling. Built to help brands create agile content ecosystems without sacrificing cinematic quality, della reflects Sophie’s belief that modern brands require both strategic velocity and enduring taste.

Born in France, raised in England, and based in Los Angeles since 2011, Sophie founded ELEANOR in 2019 with the ambition to create a modern creative company that could challenge the conventions of the production industry while championing exceptional talent.

Sophie is also known for her editorial voice as “Lady Eleanor,” where she writes about taste, storytelling, creativity, business, and the future of advertising through newsletters, essays, and speaking engagements. She has spoken at global industry festivals including Ciclope and served on juries for organizations including Cannes Lions, Gerety, and The One Show.

At the center of Sophie’s work is a belief that great creative companies are not built through trend-chasing, but through conviction, consistency, and a relentless devotion to craft.

Left on Read

The business case for brand has never been better evidenced, or harder to make. Left on Read is about why brand keeps getting ghosted inside the very organizations that depend on it, and how in-house creative leaders can build brands with a regulated nervous system: present, consistent, and clear enough to hold a point of view even when the budget is tight and the market is loud.

Why this talk, and why me: Honestly, it comes down to being a good listener. For years I have hosted dinners at Cannes with senior marketing leaders, and the same thing happens every time. Once one person admits how hard it has gotten to defend brand, the floodgates open. It is cathartic, but it is also useful. Being in a room of peers lets them say things they cannot say in their own boardrooms, and they leave better equipped to advocate for themselves. Left on Read grew directly out of those dinners. It is now my interview series where I have those same conversations with marketing leaders on the record. So I am not coming to Brand-Side because I have solved this. I am coming because I have spent years listening to the people living it, and now I am putting it on the record.

The talk is inspired by an essay I wrote that took off on Substack and was picked up by Ad Age. Sharing it here.

Joanna Berliner

Joanna Berliner

Head of Creative, Wayfair Studio
Wayfair

Joanna Berliner leads Wayfair North America’s integrated creative studio, overseeing everything from campaigns and content to visual development, curation, and performance creative for one of the world’s largest home retailers. She has built her career creating systems that help teams move faster without sacrificing creative quality.

Over more than a decade across Wayfair’s family of brands, she’s applied that approach to luxury (Perigold), specialty (AllModern, Joss & Main, Birch Lane), and mass marketplace (Wayfair), spanning B2B and B2C, physical retail and digital. Today, she is focused on how AI and automation are changing the way creative gets produced, tested, and personalized – and is building new capabilities, including creative engineering, to help lead that shift.

She lives in Boston with her husband, two young boys, and their labradoodle, Einstein – who, despite the name, has neither genius nor a systems mindset.

Genius Doesn't Scale. Systems Do.

From Renaissance workshops to the animation studios that made Fred Flintstone a household name, every leap in creative scale came from the same place: a system that defined what ""good"" looks like. AI is the newest version of that test. In this session, we'll look backward to charge forward, and leave you with the foundation that turns AI from a chaotic experiment into a brand-right engine.
