About
If your job relates to ad monetization, optimizing campaigns and outcomes, driving new advertising revenue streams, leveraging your first-party audience data, protecting your customers’ privacy and more, AdMonsters’ Sell Side Summit is for you. We’ll bring you together with your peers to exchange ideas, help grow your business, and supercharge your career trajectory.
The open web is shifting fast — with new platforms, rising costs, and audience behaviors that don’t fit neatly into old models. Publishers need more than tactics. They need a roadmap.
At Sell Side Summit Austin (Nov 2–4), we’ll connect the dots between data, systems, and people to prepare publishers for The Connected Future.
Join leaders from across the ad ops and sell-side community to tackle the biggest challenges standing between you and sustainable growth:
- The Human Side of Connected Infrastructure → How traffickers and ops pros stay relevant in an agent-driven workflow.
- Turning Fragmented Advertisers into Connected Partners → Helping clients succeed across channels while keeping the focus on outcomes like attention, lift, and loyalty.
- Building Trust in the Connected Ecosystem → Setting realistic expectations, managing new tech adoption, and positioning your team as consultative leaders.
- Leading for the Connected Future → Inspiring teams to adapt without burnout, and coaching for resilience as roles evolve.
- From Silos to Synergy → Practical approaches for breaking down workflow silos and creating cohesion without massive restructuring.
This isn’t just another event. It’s a continuation of the publisher journey — one Summit at a time — helping you build the connections and capabilities to thrive in what’s next.

Testimonials
“AdMonsters Publisher Forum is a great combination of learning, connecting, and relaxing. It’s the only organization I’ve found where I can spend time with other people that live in the weeds of ad operations. There’s an appropriate amount of forced interactions to ensure you’re making deeper connections, balanced with speakers who cover a range of topics. No time is wasted, as there’s always someone waiting to discuss your current issues. Be it a fellow ops leader, a vendor offering solutions, or an industry expert with lots of opinions… one way or another you’ll come away with ideas.”
“The diversity in roles, from strategic to tactical, fostered conversations across a wide spectrum of ideas, allowing us to learn from each other’s unique perspectives. I especially appreciated the transparent and direct input from publishers, who shared both successes and challenges, along with creative ideas on how we can collaborate for a better future for publishing. The AI roundtable discussions were particularly valuable – they were tactical, tangible, and provided real-life use cases of how AI is being utilized across businesses.”
“I recently attended the AdMonsters Scottsdale Pub Forum, and it was an incredible experience! From the moment I arrived, the event was well-organized and the atmosphere was buzzing with energy and excitement.
The sessions were insightful and covered a wide range of industry topics. Each speaker brought their own unique perspective and expertise, making every presentation both informative and engaging. One of the highlights for me was leading a workshop group, which allowed me to practice and enhance my public speaking skills in a supportive and forgiving environment. I left with a wealth of new knowledge and strategies to implement in my work.
Networking opportunities were abundant. It was inspiring to share experiences and ideas with such a talented group of individuals.
The venue in Scottsdale was beautiful, providing the perfect backdrop for both the conference and the social events. Kudos to the AdMonsters team for selecting such a fantastic location and for their attention to detail in organizing a seamless event.
Overall, the AdMonsters Scottsdale Pub Forum exceeded my expectations, and I’m already looking forward to the next one. Thank you to the entire team for putting together such a memorable and valuable experience!”
