"There wasn't some watershed moment where a lot of deals got done." In the latest installment of our Confessions series, a former NewFronts presenter explains why the publisher walked away from the event.

The founders of the NewFronts intended the event to be "the antithesis of the upfronts." Now, they fear it's "becoming too establishment."

Like publishers, advertisers are scrambling to purge their supply chains of ad tech companies that aren't in compliance with the impending General Data Protection Regulation.

Ahead of GDPR enforcement, Axel Springer is testing a variety of messages to see which are more likely to get people to consent to it using their data. Here's what the publisher has found so far.

"It feels like nobody wants you to succeed." PJ Pereira, founder and creative chairman of Pereira & O'Dell, talks about his first six months of working in America, finding a creative outlet beyond advertising and more on the latest episode of Starting Out.

Executives from ASOS, Kate Spade, Nordstrom and many more will be at the Glossy Summit. Register now for your chance to connect with them.
