Over two days, SMX will offer more than 50 French and international speakers and over twenty conferences spread across two parallel tracks: SEO and SEAThe 2025 edition showed that the technical and strategic level was high, with advanced, highly operational sessions, which gives a good indication of what to expect from the 2026 edition.

The must-attend Search Marketing event

In 2025, SMX Paris offered two full days of SEO and SEA conferences running in parallelwith targeted sessions led by agency and in‑house experts on very concrete cases (Edge SEO, product catalogs boosted by AI, server‑side solutions for media buying, PMax, TikTok as a search engine, etc.).

This very pragmatic approach, with real use caseswith real‑world case studies (Vertbaudet, La Centrale, Culligan, Maisons du Monde…), has made SMX a go‑to event for leaving with immediately actionable ideas.

The 2025 line-up counted many well-known figures such as Fabrice Canel (Bing), Virginie Clève, Mathieu Chapon, David Eichholtzer, as well as SEA and data experts like Bruno Guyot, which attests to the level of editorial rigor. The organization has relied for several years on a steering committee that ensures the provision of advanced, innovative content aligned with current Search challenges, a practice expected to continue into 2026.

Networking and business opportunities

Beyond the conferences, SMX Paris places a strong emphasis on networking meetings with leading representatives of Search Marketing, exchanges with agencies, tool publishers, advertisers and independent consultants. Breaks, lunches and exhibition areas are designed as highlight moments for making contacts, starting collaborations or recruiting specialized profiles.

In 2025, numerous feedback reports underlined the value of these off-stage moments for exploring cases presented in conference sessions, asking strategic questions to speakers, and benchmarking practices with other specialists.

For 2026, a Pass Keynote / Networking 1 or 2 days at a reduced price is also offered for professionals who wish to prioritize meetings and keynotes without attending all the technical sessions.
