Digital Summit 2026

Series of digital marketing conferences across major US cities featuring practical digital marketing education and networking opportunities.

Digital Summit 2026

Digital Summit runs December 8–9, 2026 at Hyatt Regency Dallas, Dallas.

What it is

Digital Summit is a two-day conference for digital marketing leaders, produced by Fried Family Ventures. The Dallas stop is aimed at marketers in the Dallas area, from people who handle every channel for a brand to people who lead one channel on a larger team. The organizer describes the program as "The Smartest Room in Marketing": what's now and next for marketing leaders.

Program

The opening keynote is by Seth Matlins of The Wisdomous Company. Featured speakers include Rob Sender of the Dallas Cowboys, Jon Chang of MyFitnessPal, Lauren Murphy of Fishwife and Samantha Fodrowski of Tecovas.

Sessions run in parallel tracks, including Customer Intelligence & Experience, Brand Trust and Safety, Creativity, Differentiation & Cultural Relevance, Next-Gen Operations & Infrastructure, Next Level Strategy, and Unplugged. The Growth Roundtable track runs small-group discussions.

Pass matters: sessions in The Mastermind Hub track (longer workshops, formerly called Masterclasses) are marked "Premium Pass or VIP Pass Required," so they are not included in the base conference pass.
