Turning voice of the customer into actionable strategy

IN-PERSON EVENT
27 November 2025, Munich 6:30 pm - 9:30 pm CEST
In partnership

Dinner Location: The Charles Hotel

Customer service is evolving from a cost centre to a strategic differentiator. Gartner predicts that by 2025, 40% of customer service organisations will become profit centres through digital customer engagement leadership. The challenge? Delivering personalised experiences at scale whilst optimising operations.

The potential for transformation is clear. Organisations implementing intelligent contact centre solutions are seeing remarkable results. Vodafone achieved a 50% reduction in handling time using Amazon Connect and AWS AI services. Capital One decreased both their average handle time and technology costs by 40%, while Traeger Grills improved customer satisfaction scores by 15% and reduced costs by 30%.

Join thought leaders and AWS executives from Amazon Connect, along with a select group of your peers, as we explore how to transform customer and employee experiences in tandem. Through interactive discussion, we'll examine:

  • How to harness AI and automation while maintaining authentic customer connections
  • Strategies for turning customer insights into actionable business intelligence
  • Practical approaches to empowering agents with AI-driven tools

This exclusive evening will help you navigate the future of customer experience, where efficiency and personalisation work in harmony to drive business value.
