Theme: Beyond Automation: Building the Agentic Marketing Enterprise
Marketing is moving beyond AI-powered automation toward systems that can understand context, make decisions, take action and work alongside people to drive meaningful business outcomes.
As Agentic AI enters the modern marketing enterprise, success will depend on combining intelligent technology with human creativity, judgement and collaboration—across strategy, customer engagement, content and growth.
At DIGITALCONFEX 2026, industry leaders will explore how brands, enterprises, agencies and technology organisations can move beyond traditional automation to build AI-native and adaptive marketing organisations.
