OPS is for online advertising leaders. Tackle the big issues and learn to leverage operations for increased profitability.

As online advertising has grown, Ad Operations has grown as well. OPS used to be about trafficking and discrepancies - and it still is - but now everyone in online media understands that operational excellence is necessary for success in today’s online advertising marketplace. What we think of as OPS now runs far beyond ad delivery, with ad operations leaders increasingly taking a seat at the management table. Speaking the language of OPS is a critical skill where data and audience are the currency of the industry.
Learn how OPS is shaping the future of online advertising
OPS will deliver a deep understanding of the critical technologies, tools, methods and practices that will enable you to turn online ad operations into a source of greater profit. In true AdMonsters fashion, this one day event will focus on tactics you can put into action immediately that will lead to greater long term success for your business.
Get ready for a new kind of conference
For those of you who have been part of an AdMonsters conference in the past, OPS is what you’ve come to expect from AdMonsters: a unique forum focused exclusively on those who live and breathe ad operations. OPS will open up the conversation to everyone in the industry who wants to leverage operations for increased profitability.
If you’ve never been to an AdMonsters conference, we welcome you to join us and become part of the ad ops community. We take a different approach from other conferences, and, especially if you are new to AdMonsters, OPS will be unlike any other conference you've been part of. Our sessions are focused and manage to be both strategic and tactical: we want you leaving the event with a list of things you can work with your Ad Operations team to implement to drive revenue and operate efficiently.
