How can leaders prove ROI and deliver personalized customer experiences at scale, while empowering marketing teams?

In today’s digital landscape, B2B organizations are shifting from high-touch, sales-driven models to personalized, digital-first experiences that drive growth. Spanning multiple digital touchpoints, self-service preferences in regulated industries, and human-led interactions can be especially complex. Yet, many organizations struggle with misalignment between sales and marketing. This can lead to inefficiencies, missed opportunities and fragmented customer experiences.

As AI and automation reshape how businesses engage with customers, the challenge lies in balancing technology with human relationships to accelerate pipeline growth, improve conversion rates, and build trust with customers.

Join thought leaders from EY and Adobe, along with a group of like-minded peers, as we discuss key strategies for empowering marketing teams while embracing new approaches to tackle some of the toughest challenges in marketing performance.
