The 2027 ANA AI and Technology for Marketers Conference is scheduled for Monday, June 7, 2027 – Wednesday, June 9, 2027, in Phoenix, AZ.

The conference was scheduled for September 23–25, 2026.

The conference took place in Oxon Hill, Maryland.

The stated audience included senior marketing and technology leaders, CMOs, brand leaders, and executives.

It suited CMOs, brand leaders and marketing technology executives who wanted to hear how other large organizations are putting AI into production, since the program was built around case studies on orchestration, workflow redesign and personalization, with Meta as presenting sponsor and speakers such as Scott Brinker and Pete Blackshaw. Hands-on practitioners who wanted tool-level training, and small companies without enterprise-scale AI programs, would have gotten less from a senior-leadership format like this.

Attendees at senior marketing and technology conferences usually wear business casual, such as slacks or chinos with a blazer or smart shirt, and a few executives dress a notch up.
