Demo day: Modernising the publisher tech stack

Sponsored by:

We’re mapping the future, and you’re invited

Join us on Thursday 19 June (9:30-11:30am) for an insights-driven workshop on how to understand and prioritise your modern publisher tech stack.

Understanding the full media technology landscape presents both a challenge and an opportunity. Today’s product, tech, and data teams are tasked with modernising infrastructure, exploring AI, improving UX, launching new verticals, and maintaining legacy systems – all within constrained budgets.  

The gap between ambition and execution remains wide. One key reason: the complexity of available technologies and how (or if) they integrate effectively.  

Whether you’re looking to identify the full vendor landscape, gain clarity on AI solutions, or connect with decision-makers shaping the next era of media technology, this event will give you the insight and access you need.  

No matter what stage you are at, or the size of your organisation, we will share insights and practical guidelines about technology roadmaps and how to build for the future at scale.

This is a free-to-attend event for PPA members – register today to avoid disappointment.

PPA Media Technology Market Map

As part of this workshop, you will also get an exclusive first look at the PPA 2025 Media Technology Market Map which will be a key asset to help you navigate this journey.

What is a Market Map?

A market map is a visual overview of all third-party providers, vendors, and technologies a publishing business uses – or could use – across all operations. It helps teams understand the ecosystem of tools, services, and platforms that support everything from content creation to monetisation. 

The PPA Media Technology Market Map will be living and constantly evolving online resource that can be used by members to understand the potential technology vendors and suppliers to support your business strategy.
