Demand Gen 2.0 Summit
Building on the popular demand generation track at the 2014 B2B Content2Conversion Conference, this year's conference will feature the Demand Generation 2.0 Summit. Running side by side with the conference, Demand Gen 2.0 will provide a logical connection for the creative and analytical sides of marketing to come together and collaborate around new approaches to connect with more prospects and close more deals.
"As marketing executives are recognizing the need to interface content and demand generation strategies, we are providing attendees access to leaders in the field of both categories and their real world strategies of successfully tying the two together," said Andrew Gaffney, Content Director of Demand Gen Report and President of G3 Communications, hosts of the event.
The Demand Gen 2.0 Summit will kick off on Monday, Feb. 16, with a halfday workshop--"Refreshing Your Demand Generation Strategy"--lead by one of the top consultants in the space. This hands-on workshop will provide real-world feedback on current demand generation plans, and offer specific examples on how companies can address their gaps.
Real World Case Studies
This year's conference will feature case studies from VP-level executives demonstrating how their organizations transformed and reset their strategies around content. Speakers include:
*Drew Chapin, VP of Marketing, Hyland Software, who will focus on a new model for Marketing Transformation.
*Karen Thomas, VP of Marketing for Accountable Care Solutions, Optum, who will present the topic of reimagining the marketing team to support a content lead strategy.
*Winners from the Killer Content Awards, sharing "Ted Talk-style" snapshots of how their successful content campaigns were developed and the results they generated.
"Members of our team attended one of the first Content2Conversion conferences a few years ago, and it changed the way we approach content," said Thomas. "We're honored to present at this event and share the journey with other organizations the process of developing content strategies, driving qualified leads for their sales team and measurable results from their campaigns."
