BW Festival of Marketing 2026
4th Edition • September 2026 • New Delhi

The M-Shaped Marketer

Creativity. Commerce. And Trust in the AI Age.

Marketing is being rewritten. As consumer expectations evolve, AI accelerates transformation, and the boundaries between creativity, technology, commerce and culture continue to blur, today’s marketers are being called upon to do far more than build brands. They are expected to drive growth, shape business strategy, build trust and create measurable impact.

The 4th Edition of the BW Festival of Marketing brings together the people shaping this new marketing landscape — from CMOs and marketing leaders to digital innovators, content creators and agency heads — to explore how the modern marketer is balancing creativity with commercial outcomes, innovation with responsibility, and technology with human connection.

Through high-impact conversations, thought leadership and knowledge-driven sessions, the festival will uncover the strategies, ideas and investments defining the next era of marketing. It will examine the evolving role of CMOs, their strategic priorities and their growing influence at the leadership table.

At the heart of the festival is the idea of the M-Shaped Marketer — a new generation of marketing leaders who bring together multiple dimensions of expertise, connecting creativity, data, technology, commerce, customer experience and trust to deliver business growth.

The festival will also host the 4th Edition of BW Top 100 Marketers, celebrating the visionaries and influential leaders who are shaping the future of marketing excellence in India.

Join the conversation. Challenge conventional thinking. Discover what it takes to lead marketing in the AI age.
