Max Lenderman Biography

Max Lenderman has a pulse on the future so that you and your business can win today.

Throughout his career as CCO, CMO and CEO at global ad agencies and fast-growing brands, Lenderman has worked at the forefront of marketing’s evolution. His first book 15 years ago made the term “experiential marketing” part of a brand’s lexicon and is still considered “the best book on experiential marketing.” His second book presented outrageously effective marketing campaigns from around the world. And for the past decade, he has consulted Fortune 100 companies on the power of purpose in marketing – years before the term “brand purpose” became a must-have in business.

He is also a well-known marketing voice in the world of web3, having launched one of the earliest web3 consulting agencies in early 2021. He is currently helping brands and businesses understand the “phygital” connections between digital and physical worlds that will be the next frontier of marketing and advertising.

He is a columnist for Adweek and Campaign magazines, where he writes the “Into the Metaverse” column. He has spoken at major conferences like SXSW, Consensus, Forbes CMO Summit, Advertising Week, The Art of Marketing and X-Prize, as well as dozens of marketing conferences and company off-sites.
