The Campaign In-Housing Summit 2025 brings together the UK’s top brands, in-house teams and creative leaders. Insights, strategies and connections you can’t get anywhere else. Miss it, and your competitors get the edge.
Now in its 5th year, the summit has become the meeting place for those shaping the future of marketing, advertising and creative delivery from within. In-housing is no longer a question of if, it’s about how to make it work smarter, faster and more creatively than ever before.
The brands shaping 2026 are here. Will you be?
"A highlight from today was Matt from Three who shared the transformation journey that Three has been on and their new creative direction. It helped us understand what it is like to run a in-house creative team - I loved his progressive style and he got me thinking about creative progression."
Jo Bird, Creative Consultant, 2024
Matt Watson, the Chief Creative Officer at Sips & Bites & PepsiCo EU, has an infectious leadership style that bleeds into everything he does, running the creative department through empowerment and an own-your-sh*t approach to ideas. Matt’s belief is to treat humans like humans, to give them the tools to own their work, their ideas and watch them grow.
Matt’s human-first approach places people at the heart of everything S&B does. From talent development to ideas and executions, human-centric thinking is Matt’s guiding lens for agency and brand growth.
His key achievements for 2024 include three Cannes Lions and a D&AD yellow pencil from over 40 creative advertising awards won.
Sips & Bites was recently awarded “Campaign’s in-house agency of the year, 2024 and has been ranked 10th most creative agency in London by Cannes and 4th most creative in-house agency globally by D&AD, and only 5 years old.
