Join Manufacturing Talks on demand.

Meet Adobe, CBS and Siemens at the event and hear about how to create great customer experiences in Manufacturing.

Are you getting ready for the new reality? In B2B you previously grew your business by creating physical meetings and events enabling sales teams and customers to meet. In 2020 this has not been possible. The industry has had to find new ways to establish relationships. The industry has pivoted to new levels in order to create digital experiences for their customers. This transformation has required a new strategy, new processes, and new mindsets.

This online session is aimed at exploring the customer experience driven digital transformation journey. We will hear from Siemens on how they adapted their customer event strategy to Covid-19, the challenges they had and how they pivoted to fully virtual events - and how that helped them to create even stronger customer experiences. And how data has become crucial to support this change.

We will hear from Adobe’s Industry Leader Danny Dalton: Trends right now in Manufacturing and what challenges these customers are facing.
