Each team will be assigned a “chaperone” to help you make your way around the Hill, as well as answer any questions you might have.
Participants will hear from the IAB government relations team about legislative and regulatory proposals that could impact their businesses. Examples of important proposals that we will discuss this year include the Do Not Track Online Act, which is an overly broad bill that directs the FTC to develop standards for an onerous Do Not Track mechanism, and the FTC’s Native Advertising Guidance, which spells out the FTC’s rules for native ads and creates new obligations for advertisers and publishers alike.
