Delegates

DIS is an international, English-medium forum for key decision-makers and senior executives in strategic and operational capacities in media and related industries from across the globe.

Around 35 per cent of the delegates are from Germany, 45 per cent from the rest of Europe and the rest from around the world. They are made up of senior level strategic and operational managers, consultants, academics and rising media stars.

They have learnt from and been inspired by DIS's unrivalled line up of speakers. They have networked and shared ideas, built relationships and done business.

You can too.
