A new marketing venture, Bubbler Media Group, has launched with a focus on driving creativity and conversation in an increasingly AI-driven landscape, according to an announcement.

Founded by industry executives Gayle Troberman and David Alberts, Bubbler is positioned as a "conversation company" aimed at helping brands move beyond traditional marketing approaches. The company plans to engage marketers through podcasts, live experiences, research, and planning tools designed to foster new ideas and audience engagement.

The company's strategy is built around three core areas: podcasts featuring industry voices and original content, solutions that translate ideas into actionable marketing strategies, and experiential events intended to bring together leaders from multiple industries.

As part of its launch, Bubbler has partnered with iHeartMedia to develop and distribute more than 10 original business and marketing podcasts this year. Will Pearson said the initiative reflects continued expansion into business-focused podcasting, creating a platform for deeper conversations among marketing professionals.

Bubbler is also teaming with Summit to produce live experiences, including programming for marketing executives at Summit's flagship Summit at Sea event, along with additional events across the U.S. Chris Stakich said the collaboration aims to bring together leaders across industries to drive innovation through shared ideas.

Founding partners for the new venture include State Farm and Sam's Club, as Bubbler looks to build a community centered on curiosity, collaboration, and conversation-driven growth.
