What the Future holds for Ad Agencies

By Adam Kleinberg
I was interviewed this week at ad:tech San Francisco by Allvoices.com. They asked me what the future holds for advertising agencies. Watch this video and see what I had to say. I also was on a panel called "How not to piss off a brand marketer" that was covered here.

Yesterday, I shuffled over to the Radisson to catch one last session at SXSW put on by our pals over at ThoughtWorks.
