AI-powered personalisation is entering a new era.
Until now, most personalisation strategies have focused on reacting to customer behaviour by recommending products, optimising content and tailoring messages based on previous interactions. But agentic AI changes the equation entirely.
Rather than simply responding to prompts, agentic AI can proactively pursue goals, understand context, adapt in real time, and make intelligent decisions across the customer journey. This shift enables brands to move beyond static personalisation toward dynamic experiences that continuously evolve with every interaction. The result is a new model of customer engagement: one that delivers hyper-relevant experiences at scale, accelerates decision-making in real time, and drives deeper customer loyalty and retention.
In this opening keynote, we will explore how agentic personalisation is transforming the future of customer experience through three emerging applications:
While nearly every brand is investing in personalisation, many marketing leaders still face the same challenge: how do you prove it is delivering measurable business value?
Personalised algorithms now sit at the centre of modern digital marketing, shaping everything from product recommendations and content feeds to search results, advertising, and customer journeys. Designed to increase relevance and improve engagement, these systems have become essential tools for brands looking to deliver tailored experiences at scale. For consumers, personalised recommendations can simplify discovery.
Customers don't think in channels, they think in moments. They browse a product on mobile, abandon a basket on desktop, open an email later that day, and scroll past a reminder on social media the next morning. Each of these interactions is a signal of intent or need.
Pull up a chair and join one of our interactive roundtable discussions for an open, honest, and energetic exchange of ideas with fellow attendees. Choose the topic that matters most to you, join the conversation, and share challenges, successes, tips, and experiences.
Share stories of success and failure of AI generated marketing material. We will aim to answer a practical question for marketers on not whether AI can create content, but where it should and where it still shouldn't.
Explore what fellow peers believe makes a good personalisation strategy in the age of AI, privacy concerns and rising customer expectations
Discuss the rise of AI agents that can autonomously optimise marketing campaigns by adjusting budgets, targeting, and creative in real time based on performance goals. Join this table to examines where this level of automation is already effective, particularly in high-volume performance marketing, and where human oversight is still essential.
As organisations continue to invest in personalisation, many are facing a fundamental challenge: the quality, accessibility, and completeness of their data.
Time to take a stand. We're breaking from the script for an interactive debate. We'll throw out 8 polarising statements, your job is to pick a side, sharpen your arguments with your team, and go head-to-head with the opposition
During our closing session, we will bring together the key learnings from across the conference and revisit the four guiding questions we introduced at the start of Day One:
We will use these questions as a framework to reflect on how thinking around personalisation has evolved from traditional segmentation and rule-based targeting to intelligent systems that operate in real time. We will also explore how the future of personalisation is no longer simply about better targeting. Instead, it is about building adaptive, AI-driven systems that continuously shape and optimise the customer experience in the moment.
A key theme we will explore during this conference wide discussion is the move from reactive to predictive personalisation. Rather than responding to what customers have already done, the most advanced organisations are beginning to anticipate what customers are likely to need next and proactively shaping experiences, content, and offers accordingly. This shift from reaction to prediction represents a fundamental change in how marketing value is created. In this new environment, brands that remain purely reactive risk falling behind. Competitive advantage will increasingly belong to organisations that can anticipate needs and deliver meaningful experiences before the customer even expresses intent.
