After last year's inaugural event, plus a star-filled trip over the pond for an LA edition, shots Out of the Box is back in Blighty for another dose of the digital page brought to the actual stage.
Taking place at The Londoner in Leicester Square on Wednesday 20 November, this year's line-up is expanding on everything you enjoyed from the last event and honing it to a more focused and rewarding day.

Our first session is a panel discussion around sustainability in commercial production. However, this ain't your grandma's noddathon around the talking points; with Sustainable Production in a Time of Crisis, we're looking for take-home solutions that acknowledge the challenging times the industry is in.
Hosted by Emma Horton, Sustainability Director at XR, the panel brings together leaders who are not only passionate about green production but also pragmatic in finding solutions that align with tightening budgets: Jo Fenn (AdGreen), Anthony Falco (Ad Net Zero), Annie Gibbons (Dentsu), and Clémentine Buren (Le Pac), as they discuss how companies can make impactful changes today, working towards B Corp certification and implementing sustainable practices that are both environmentally responsible and cost-effective.
