You can’t improve what you can’t clearly see…
GYDA FORUM 2026
This isn’t a conference. No stages. No speakers. No audience.
50 Agencies. Four rooms.
Shared data, shared insight.
Openly compare performance: growth rates, margins, pricing models, utilisation, team composition, and strategic focus.
The goal isn’t competition - it’s context. You’ll leave knowing what “good” actually looks like right now, where you’re ahead, and where you’re exposed.
GYDA FORUM - A private working session for agency leaders.
13th May 2026
9am - 5pm
Citizen M, Tower of London
We now have a limited number of open tickets available to purchase.
The event is open to agency leaders only.

Join Robert Craven of GYDA for an agency executive dinner at the Zen Den. We’ll spend the evening enjoying Asian cuisine whilst discussing: ‘Winning in the Digital Agency Market - What Clients Want. Why You Win or Lose. How to Fix It.’
Growth has stalled at 3–7% because AI is commoditising execution and clients feel ignored (only 10% are happy with agency service). To win, you must pivot from vendor to strategic partner.

PRACTICAL AND INSPIRING
"The Breaking £1M workshop was both practical and inspiring, and I found it a great investment in my business. It was run at a good pace, with lots of interactivity as well as useful learning. I enjoyed hearing the case study from a business I admire, and the energy in the room throughout made for an uplifting experience, with everyone encouraged to share and be candid, which was refreshing. I’m already taking action and am looking forward to an accountability follow-up session."
