CMO Summit, July 2026

The invitation-only Marcus Evans CMO Summit (Gold Coast, 22–23 July) brings together senior marketing leaders from organisations including David Jones, Woolworths Group, IBM ANZ, Telstra Enterprise, Football Australia, Optus, 7-Eleven, Tennis Australia, Weber and Schneider Electric to discuss the trends shaping the future of marketing.

As part of the program, Vanessa Lyons, CEO of ThinkNewsBrands and former award-winning CMO, will present the closing keynote, Trust as a Growth Driver: What Today’s Consumer Shift Means for Brands.

Drawing on the latest consumer and marketer research, Vanessa will explore why trust is becoming one of the strongest drivers of attention, confidence and commercial performance, and why where brands show up is becoming just as important as what they say in an era of AI, misinformation and increasingly fragmented media.
