A SIINDA half-day conference at The Westin La Quinta in Marbella, bringing together companies building AI-powered local marketing products with platforms, agencies, and digital innovators to explore how AI is reshaping local search and local business discovery.
The AI-Driven Local Marketing Strategies Conference is a half-day event organised by SIINDA, the Search and Information Industry Association. Held on 11 October 2026 at The Westin La Quinta Golf Resort near Marbella, the event brings together companies building AI-powered local marketing solutions with platforms, agencies, and innovators. Sessions explore how AI is changing local search, local business discovery, and digital marketing tools for small and medium-sized businesses.
SIINDA's ETN (European Technology Network) events create focused working sessions for the local digital industry, where product and business professionals can exchange concrete experience rather than attend broad conference programmes. The AI-Driven Local Marketing Strategies Conference addresses the specific moment when generative and predictive AI tools are being integrated into local search and local marketing platforms at scale.
SIINDA is the Search and Information Industry Association, a European industry body representing companies in the local digital marketing and local information services sector, including directories, local search platforms, and digital marketing providers for SMBs.
ETN stands for European Technology Network, SIINDA's series of focused industry working sessions. These are smaller, more focused events than the main SIINDA annual conference, designed for practitioners to exchange experience on specific topics.
No. The event runs from 14:00 to 16:00 on 11 October 2026, making it a two-hour working session, not a full-day programme.
