EXCLUSIVE BUNDLE DISCOUNT FOR ADFEST & THE INDIE SUMMIT DELEGATES

In a first-ever partnership, The Indie Summit, brought to Bangkok by thenetworkone, and ADFEST are offering special bundle discounts. Attend two of the region’s pre-eminent industry events with one day between to travel to Pattaya and a significant discount for each.


Since the Indie Summit launched in 2017, it has been the leading international conference for owners and leaders of independent agencies from all communications disciplines – earned, paid and owned. Agency leaders come together from all continents of the world, to learn, to share experience and to be inspired to explore new possibilities.

It’s a relaxed and informal forum to discuss new trends and to stay ahead of the curve in what is next to come in our communications industry. The Indie Summit is designed to be fun, but it’s serious too. Most participants end up working with other people they meet there, from other countries or with different skill sets. Many delegates return, year after year. There is a generous spirit of partnership and mutual support, because everyone shares a belief in the Indie Summit’s core value – independence. This is the first time that the thenetworkone is bringing The Indie Summit to Bangkok.

Julian Boulding, Founder & CEO, thenetworkone, commented, “The mission of thenetworkone, is to bring together talented and creative thinkers and to craft communications, which will bring benefits to every corner of Asia and the world. We share this mission with our friends and collaborators at ADFEST.

Our decision to bring The Indie Summit, our flagship annual conference, to Thailand in 2026 reflects our long-standing admiration for the work of Vinit, Kem and the ADFEST team, to further this aim. And our solidarity with them. I warmly encourage Indie Summit delegates to participate in ADFEST, and ADFEST delegates to participate in the Indie Summit. For whoever joins both events, a generous discount is offered on the entry price for the two events individually.”

The Indie Summit Bangkok will take place Sunday 15 – Tuesday 17 March 2026 at the Lebua Tower Club hotel in Bangkok just before ADFEST 2026, which will be held Thursday 19 – Saturday 21 March 2026 at the Royal Cliff Hotels Group in Pattaya, Thailand. So interested delegates can enjoy both events with a day’s transfer to Pattaya.
