Most marketing teams are adding AI to how they already work. This agenda is for the ones ready to rebuild around it entirely - and pull ahead of the teams that aren't.

September 9-10

Marketing teams are rehashing the playbooks they already have. This agenda is for the marketers ready to sharpen their positioning, stand out in crowded markets, and stay ahead of the trends reshaping the role.

September 9-10

Developers are harder to win than ever in a world where AI makes everyone's marketing sound the same. This agenda is for the marketers determined to do it anyway.
