The rapid political and regulatory changes occurring in 2025 are upending advertising and marketing law. This new environment is creating unique challenges while the industry is confronting emerging technologies that are changing the where, when, and how of reaching consumers. It is important that legal is not always the "department of no," but it is equally important that marketing teams work within the bounds of both the law and ethics.

The 2025 ANA Masters of Advertising Law Conference, November 3-5 in Chicago, Ill., will bring together in-house counsel at major brands, leading ad law practitioners at major law firms, top regulators, and anyone else who wants to learn, through real-world examples and best practices, how legal and marketing can work together to adapt to these challenges and changes while effectively promoting their products and driving sales. Now it its 47th year, it’s the nation’s leading marketing and advertising law conference, with great networking opportunities and major CLE credit.
