#61: How agentic AI can transform B2B event marketing with Travis Cushing, CPO of RainFocus

If you had to bet on one technology that will fundamentally reshape B2B marketing in the next five years what would it be, and would it have "agentic" and "AI" in the name? Agility requires not just reacting to technological advancements like agentic AI, but proactively experimenting with them and adapting your strategies based on real-world results.  It also requires organizational buy-in and a willingness to challenge established norms. Today, we're going to talk about the rise of agentic AI and its potential to revolutionize B2B marketing, particularly in event marketing.
