A Better Option for Branded Entertainment: Leveraging a Multi-Channel Content Engine
The growing disconnect between the way people consume entertainment and the structure of traditional Hollywood studios has left too many brands without good options for reaching consumers. Instead of trying to work around the old system, innovative marketers are looking for a better way to create and distribute branded entertainment that reaches people wherever, whenever, and however they choose to consume content. But what should brands be looking for in an entertainment partner? This conversation will explore a new approach that gives top-brands the options-and results-they need to succeed with consumers today and tomorrow.

The Economics of Unified Marketing
When it comes to the future of marketing, today’s executives have some clear mandates on their mind: data must be real-time and actionable, visitor profiles must be cross-device and omni-channel, and most importantly, marketing efforts must be unified. Unfortunately, these mandates have been difficult to accomplish given the explosion in the number of siloed digital marketing applications, each of which use their own data syntax and language. Organizations are now spending billions on costly and resource-intensive data warehousing projects to try and stitch this fragmented data back together. Learn how adopting a unified marketing strategy can help your organization bring order to the chaos of technology and more easily achieve the "holy grail" of marketing. Includes exclusive results from a new survey from the CMO Council exploring the economics of unified marketing.

Mobile is becoming the key place for media consumption. It’s where people are social networking, viewing videos, reading news and books. As the number of smartphone users across the globe continues to rapidly rise, mobile is not only the future of connectivity, but the future of marketing and media too. Via ads and apps marketers are making inroads to monetizing their mobile strategy, but not at a rate that allows them to keep pace with this dynamic and fast-paced environment. We look at the next wave of mobile—its impact on media consumption and creativity—and whether it will disrupt your business or lead you into a profitable new world.

5:20 pm - 5:50 pmFireside Chat: The UN-Marketer
As Beyonce’s recent album launch showed us, sometimes stealth really is best. But how do you really pull that off? Is it just celebrities like Beyonce and Prince, who also recently engaged in his own brand of stealth marketing with a series of pop-up concerts, who can make stealth work for them? Or is there a lesson in that for the brand marketer? Maybe less really is more?
