About this Event

FuseFuel presents x Media: In-House or Outsourced?

About the event:

When it comes to media, brands face a critical question: keep it in-house or bring in external partners. We’re breaking down the pros and cons of both approaches with leaders (holding 36 years of combined experience) who’ve navigated the highs and lows of in-house teams, agency partnerships, and hybrid models. Expect real talk, sharp insights, and no fluff—just the perspectives you need to make smarter decisions in an ever-evolving media landscape.

Food, wine + drinks are on us! RSVP to secure your spot.
