The annual IAB Australia Data & Privacy Summit event examined all the latest themes and trends related to data & privacy in terms of both the opportunities and the responsibilities across the digital advertising industry.
On the same day the annual IAB Australia Data State of the Nation (2025) report was released, presented and discussed at the event. This annual report outlines the findings from an industry survey designed by the IAB Australia Data Council, with the aim of helping the IAB prioritise industry education & initiatives to help publishers, tech vendors & marketers safely and responsibly leverage data for digital advertising. This is a particularly critical report currently in H2 2025, with the ongoing and impending local legislative changes now underway.
