Horizons Altair Media

Horizons is where we stop staring at dashboards and start looking at where we are going.

Every quarter, we cut through the noise to spotlight the shifts that will define marketing, media and advertising in the next 12 to 18 months.

It's not a trend report.
It's not theory.
It's a straight to the point, forward-looking guide to what’s coming and how to win in it.

The Horizons mission is simple: anticipate change before it hits.

Whether it’s AI rewriting the rules of discovery, platforms reshaping culture, or audiences moving faster than brands can keep up, Horizons gives you the edge. It’s about clarity, confidence and competitive advantage.

We’re bullish about the future. Change isn’t something to fear, it’s fuel. Horizons channels our obsession with what’s next into sharp insights and bold direction. We tell you where the opportunities are, where the risks lie, and what you need to do about it now.

Horizons is more than a webinar – it’s a mindset.

A relentless push to stay ahead, think bigger and act braver.

Because the future won’t wait and neither should you.

Never stop, never settle, make amazing.

Date: 4th December 2025 // Time: 10:30 - 11:30 // Location: Virtual

In September's edition of Horizons we looked into the biggest shifts shaping the next 12–18 months:

  • AI Avatars: From H&M’s digital twins to DIY virtual personas, avatars are reshaping identity, influence and privacy.
  • Meta Advertising: Precision targeting is shrinking — creative agility is now the real differentiator.
  • WhatsApp Commerce: From Tata Cliq’s $500k flash sales to Skullcandy’s 60% cart recovery, chat is becoming checkout.
  • Google PMAX: Once a black box, PMAX now offers granular transparency while demanding more data than ever.
  • AI + Manufacturing: Alibaba’s “sell to make” flips production on its head, with products only manufactured after demand is proven.
  • AI + Sales: From livestream bots selling 24/7 to conversational customer service, expectations are rising fast.
  • LinkedIn Video: BrandLink is turning LinkedIn into a video-first, B2B-friendly YouTube rival.

The common thread? AI and platforms are accelerating, pushing businesses to rethink creative, data, and how they connect with audiences.

Horizons explores what’s happening now and what’s coming next.

WhatsApp for marketing
Horizons

WhatsApp is no longer just for messages. It’s fast becoming one of the most powerful platforms for customer engagement and for driving serious revenue.

AI Sales Teams
Horizons

AI is transforming how sales happen, not just behind the scenes, but live, in front of customers.

Google and Data
Horizons

Performance Max (PMAX) has shifted gears in just a few months. Once a black box, it’s now opening up, giving advertisers a clearer view of what’s working and why.

Making money on Meta
Horizons

The rules of Meta advertising are changing fast. Specific audience targeting is shrinking, niche segments are being rolled up, and the platform is pushing advertisers towards broader audiences. That sounds limiting, but it isn’t.

H&M Digital Twins
Horizons

What started as experimental “digital twins” for brands like H&M is rapidly becoming a tool anyone can use.
