Campaign has released the A List – a compilation of over 200 industry leaders and their musings on the year gone and year ahead.

In 2025, the advertising and marketing industry underwent some huge organisational shifts. Amid revenue declines, share price drops, job cuts, leadership changes and legacy agencies changing their names, 2026 marks a new era for the industry.

In this episode of The Campaign Podcast, the Campaign team discuss some of the A Listers' perspectives, including how to be innovative in uncertain times, and what outfits they wear to a pitch.

Hosted by tech and multimedia editor Lucy Shelley, this episode includes deputy editor Gemma Charles, editor-in-chief Gideon Spanier and deputy creativity and culture editor Charlotte Rawlings.
