AOP 2026: The Marketers’ Compass
The room where India’s marketers choose their
2026 bets.

2026 will not reward those who play safe. It will reward those who ask better questions, choose sharper channels, design smarter funnels, and use AI with intent, not instinct. Elevate AOP 2026 is where India’s leading CMOs, CDOs, and growth leaders step out of campaign chaos and step into clarity. This isn’t a conference. It’s a decision room.

Help leaders walk into their AOP rooms with sharper questions, clearer bets, and actionable ideas they can plug into their 2026 plans immediately.

If you’re asking the same questions, Elevate AOP 2026 is designed to turn them into a sharper, actionable growth playbook.

This isn’t an event. It’s a catalyst. Expect clarity, candour, real case stories, eye-opening panel debates, and conversations that continue long after the slides close.

Key Sessions

Not seminars. Not showcases.

Straight, honest conversations between the leaders who decide how India markets, grows, and scales.

This is for the leaders who want a compass, not more noise.

New Age Retail Disruptors

Bold brands. Faster funnels. Bigger SOV.

How brands like Comet, Rare Rabbit, Libas and others grabbed disproportionate market attention with digital-first thinking. A session for leaders who want to outpace – not outspend – the competition.

Omni-Channel Thinking

The New Growth Architecture.

Legacy brands are winning again. Here’s how. Hear from giants who decoded disruption – balancing brand vs performance, building consistency across channels, and designing media that moves culture and conversion.

Data for Marketers

Turning Signals into Strategy.

Because AOP decisions deserve clarity, not dashboards. How to separate noise from insight, choose metrics that matter, and build measurement systems that guide – not confuse – your organisation.

Scaling Creative Thinking with AI

The creative revolution is here – and it’s algorithmic.

How AI is transforming ideation, production, optimisation, and performance. From creative intelligence systems to real-time DCO, this is the session every CMO needs to future-proof their content engine.

Storytelling with Piyush Pandey

A Tribute

A special homage to Lt. Mr. Piyush Pandey, celebrating his lasting influence on Indian advertising. Stories, lessons, and principles that continue to guide brand building in an AI-driven world.
