NEW YORK, Dec. 29, 2015 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Advertising Research Foundation (The ARF) announced today that it will kick off a jam packed week at the International Consumer Electronics Show, starting on January 5th with a live webcast entitled "The ARF @ CES: Where's the Future Going Next."
Gayle Fuguitt, Chief Executive Officer and President of The ARF will be joined by over 20 advertising and marketing leaders over the course of the week to look into the future of advertising and discuss how the technologies that enable "connected consumers" are fundamentally changing how advertising works.
In a world where every consumer is connected and where they consume media on-the-go, at any time and with any device they choose, we ask these hard questions -- how must advertising be reinvented to continue to be relevant and useful? What are the implications for privacy and security? Will we see a renaissance of creativity? We will explore these and other key opportunities and issues facing our industry.
