At Cannes Lions 2026, 13,000+ marketing leaders from 92 countries gathered around a single question: Where does creative advantage come from once AI handles capacity?

The State of AI in Marketing 2026 is a joint report by MMA and Decision Lab, surveying 143 marketing professionals across five Southeast Asian markets in early 2026. It finds that while 57% of organisations have reached advanced AI adoption, the real gap now lies in scaled integration, talent capability, and risk governance rather than access to tools. The report closes with practical implications to help marketers move from experimentation to disciplined, organisation-wide AI integration.

Peak Season Playbook is a strategic retail media guide designed for Türkiye's unique calendar of overlapping demand moments, including Valentine's Day, Ramadan, Mother's Day, Back to School, and Legendary November.

Each edition draws from Member Insights contributed by MMA Indonesia members and turns those perspectives into a curated view of the forces influencing business, brands, consumers and growth - as highlights.
