Marketing Trends 2026: What Sky Knows (That You Need To Know)

We’re opening Marketing Fest 2026 with an energetic 60‑minute session led by Sky’s Kurt Edwards, who will be sharing the trends Sky are seeing and the conversations they are hearing from brands of all sizes across the marketplace today.

Kurt will be joined by Gareth Turner, former Head of Marketing for Weetabix & Heineken to give an independent view and he works directly with scaling brands to help them craft a go to market strategy.

Designed for entrepreneurs at any stage, this session blends practical insight with real life implications and you’ll be sure to challenge the way you think about marketing going forward.

No jargon. No fluff. Just trend‑driven, founder‑friendly insight that helps you take action today.

The session is in three parts:

Part 1: Marketing Trends we are seeing and hearing

Part 2: How this impacts your thinking, application and how you to go to market

Part 3: Q & A

Who is it for?

Entrepreneurs, founders, micro‑business owners, side‑hustlers and creators who want to:

  • Understand what trends are playing out currently.
  • How trust has become the biggest differentiator
  • How creativity compounds over time
  • How thinking needs to be more robust with smaller budgets
