What will you learn?
Discover how the creator economy is redefining agency work, how AI unlocks hyper-local creativity at global scale, and how independents build profitable, future-fit business models — billing, growth, culture. Leave with practical ideas, fresh perspective, and a global network of independent agency leaders shaping what’s next.
Who should attend?
If you are an agency owner or CEO – the Indie Summit is definitely for you. We also welcome other members of your Senior Leadership Team – Directors of Strategy, Creativity, Finance and Marketing.
Madrid, Spain
This year’s conference heads to Madrid, one of Europe’s most energetic creative capitals and a natural bridge between Europe and Latin America. Spanish agencies, networks and clients have long been the gateway into LatAm markets, and Madrid is where those relationships are made, so it’s the right place to bring our members together. Beyond the business, the city rewards anyone with a spare day either side: world-class art at the Prado and Reina Sofía, the tapas bars of La Latina, and a nightlife culture that starts late and finishes later. Venue details to follow shortly.
Partners
What is an Indie Summit like?
Picture a room full of the sharpest independent minds in the industry, welcome drinks flowing, ideas flying, and not a single corporate script in sight. Come ready to share your story. You’ll leave with new ideas, new collaborators, and probably new business too. The curated dinners? Consistently the highlight everyone talks about.
It’s fun. It’s fast-paced. It’s serious when it needs to be. And it’s built on something rare, a genuine spirit of partnership between people who all believe in the same thing: independence. That’s why delegates keep coming back, year after year.
