Welcome to The Creatorverse—a long-emerging element of marketing that brands around the world are attempting to master.

Sourcing and working with the right potential ambassadors over social media has always posed a challenge, and with the emergence of more creators, the landscape has become even more complex and political. But the potential to reach millions of fans is too alluring for marketers to ignore. A marketer's life is never easy!

This year at Social Media Week Europe (#SMW), Adweek will welcome marketers and social media professionals to explore some of the trends and success stories, alongside the fails, that the Creatorverse has thrown up in recent months. They'll share best practices and insights on how marketers and ad agencies can effectively collaborate with creators to drive next-level engagement, how to use innovative digital content to create communities that marketers can engage, grow and monetize, and so much more.

During this impactful two-day experience, you'll have the opportunity to make valuable connections within a global community of marketing and social media leaders while gaining the insights, tactics and best practices you need to navigate this landscape with confidence.

Building Brand Love

A discussion around the metrics and strategic objectives a brand can put in play when working with creators to build and grow a dedicated community and how to then commercialise that.

B to B Sales through Social Media

We'll highlight an e-commerce platform on how they are building a creator community to help online retailers drive sales. Where do creators fit within the world of the 360 campaign?

Doing Good and Changing the World

We'll highlight a nonprofit who continually evolves their social media to fundraise and highlight societal issues. What lessons have they used to build their own creator strategy and what is it achieving?

Forming Successful Influencer Brand Partnerships

Can any brand tap into the creator economy and how do they go about sourcing the right talent to act as ambassadors and where does the line sit for the influencer between authenticity and brand messaging?

What Brands Must Focus on to Win in the Attention Economy

If marketers feel they need to evolve their strategies to expand their influence, connect with their audience and win in the attention economy, then what should they focus on in terms of outcomes and metrics that creators can help them to achieve?

What does AI Mean for the Influencer?

The impact of artificial intelligence is set to be widespread and dramatic, and will certainly be a factor in how marketers and creators collaborate - especially as virtual influencers become more sophisticated: so where do we go from here?

Mastering the Art of Strategic Engagement

The way information is shared has evolved and marketers are finding it more difficult to build meaningful consumer relationships in a world where attention is fleeting and loyalty is thin. This discussion will explore how brands are attempting to create connections that drive sales.

The Power of Social Media Branding

The maturity of social media within marketing means it is one of the most important components of a companies ongoing external communications - so where are we now? Can brands now be built using social media as the main channel to drive awareness?

Brand Safety in the Creatorverse

As marketers learn that to effectively work with creators they must be open to letting them do what they are best at with little interference - how them do brands mitigate any potential controversy or fall out. Especially in the wake of Bud Light’s polarising partnership. What are lessons marketers must learn and and how do they best educate creator partners to respect their brand values?
