People’s Pick Panel is a new program segment at DK2026 that invites the industry to actively co-create the festival agenda.
Open exclusively to festival organizers from the HURA and IAB Croatia communities, the People’s Pick Panel invites you to propose, design and — if the public votes for it — deliver your own panel as part of the official DK2026 lineup. Together with the community, we want to spotlight topics that truly matter to the communication industry and ignite conversations the audience genuinely wants to be part of.
We are looking for topic ideas that:
• address relevant industry topics
• offer clear value (no self-promotion)
• feature strong panel dynamics
• are engaging, timely and discussion-driven
You got this by now: we’re looking for panels that open important conversations, bring fresh perspectives to the market and invite thought-provoking dialogue — while staying accessible, sharp and interesting for a broader festival audience. So yes, please make it juicy.
Submission deadline is 1 March 2026. Submit HERE.
After that, it’s up to the people. Public voting will decide which panels make it to the DK2026 stage — so for now, focus on crafting a strong idea, assembling the right voices and getting the conversation started. If it doesn’t start a debate, it probably doesn’t belong on stage.
We’ll stop talking now. But you shouldn’t.
