Event Overview

We look forward to welcoming you at the 2025 IAB MENA Digital Adspend event where we will unveil the results of the 2024 Adspend Study and provide a view on trends.

Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to network with leaders in the industry and be among the first to get a glimpse of the results of the study.

This year, we aim to include a breakout of e-commerce/retail media spend and provide a perspective on the scale of export spends. As is previous years, we will also contextualize the results by showing the comparative position of European markets.

Experience firsthand stakeholder reactions and engage in discussions about the newly revealed results for 2024. This in-person, members-only event promises not only valuable insights but also ample networking opportunities. We can’t wait to welcome you!
