Introducing Sky Media’s 2023 Innovation Sprint

Sky, a business built on innovation, has a track record of both market-changing consumer products (Sky+, HD, Sky Glass) and AdTech capabilities (AdSmart, Sky AdVance, Web Attribution and upcoming Smart Sponsorships).

And now, we’re inviting the industry to collaborate with us to build the next generation of advertising innovations…

The two day ‘Innovation Sprint’ will be attended by the hottest industry talent (nominated by media agency leadership teams) and will include a combination of keynotes on innovation, an inside look into Sky’s processes and product roadmap; and a competitive brief for delegates to collaborate and build ideas for future advertising solutions.

To read the full press release, please click here.

Sky will be inviting innovative AdTech companies and start-ups to pitch their ad technology to be part of the ‘Sprint’ itself, taking place at our Osterley HQ on Thursday 26th January 2023. Up to five shortlisted companies will pitch to the delegates at the event with the potential for the products/capabilities to be featured in the ideas that are generated with Sky Media committing to turning the best ideas – generated during the ‘Sprint’ – into POCs with the potential to incorporate the technology in future product launches.

Submissions are now closed and we’ll be in touch with the successful applicants soon!
