Hyatt Regency Resort & Spa At Gainey Ranch
7500 E Doubletree Ranch Rd
Scottsdale,, AZ 85258
Set amidst flowering cactus and framed against the majestic McDowell Mountains, our Arizona destination resort is surrounded beauty on all sides. Splash in the 2.5-acre water playground complete with a sand beach and 3-story, high speed waterslide. Relax in the gorgeous Spa Avania, including a Himalayan Salt Room. The stunning hotel and grounds will be the backdrop for your Publisher Forum experience.
The AdMonsters group rate is $334 per night and is inclusive of taxes and the $40/night resort fee. You can only reserve a hotel room at this rate via the AdMonsters registration site and cannot contact the hotel directly.
SCAM ALERT: BEWARE OF OUTSIDE ROOM OFFERS. Fraudulent companies—most notably scammers known as Exhibitors Housing Services (EHS) and CBS International—are known to present themselves as an official conference hotel booking partner. These groups are in no way affiliated with AdMonsters and their claims of having access to rooms are false. The only way to reserve a room at AdMonsters is through our registration site.

FAQ
Who attends Publisher Forum?
AdMonsters Publisher Forums are designed specifically for digital strategists, data scientists, revenue, operations & technology leaders at online publishers, content creators and mobile application developers. AdMonsters reviews and approves each individual participant to ensure a conversation amongst a community of senior peers in digital media.
What should I expect at the Publisher Forum?
Most sessions are open to attendees only, except for Sponsor Workshops, Panels, and Networking Sessions.
The Publisher Forum conference takes place over three days, beginning with a cocktail reception and dinner on Sunday evening and ending at 1:00 PM Wednesday. The agenda includes:
- 2-3 keynotes by industry visionaries
- Interactive sessions led by industry leaders who are also part of the AdMonsters community
- Breakouts covering a wide variety of focused revenue, data and ad-ops relevant topics
The 30-60 minute attendee sessions include presentations, round-table discussions and case studies on a wide variety of relevant topics such as: yield management, first party auctions, ad serving technology, inventory management, organizational structure, data science, business process automation, operations policies, rich/streaming media and more.
Why should I register early?
Two reasons:
- The price for Publisher Forums goes up as we get closer to the event date
- We always sell out since we limit the number of attendees to keep the conversations open and flowing
