Here are four reasons why you should attend the 5th Conference.

1. NAT – networking apart together

Several members of the Duval Union group (GrowthAgent, Duval Union Academy) are hosting a COVID-proof conference to meet fellow marketing and business professionals. COVID-proof and networking in the same sentence? The 5th Conference makes it happen.

After months of remote working in isolation, we want the conference to be a boost for networking opportunities. Get in touch with fellow marketers, meet like-minded professionals and build enhancing business relationships. A pioneering event to network apart together!

The 5th Conference on MarTech is an entirely virtual conference. It brings together the most brilliant minds in the field of marketing-technology with eye-opening inspirational sessions and practical workshops. 

2. Insights for a prosperous 2021

Buckle up and get ready for powerful insights to embark upon in 2021 and beyond. Technology is all around us and it is essential to jump on the innovation train. AI - cited to deliver on many opportunities - is extensively used as a popular innovative solution for everything. But how can you distinguish relevant and qualitative applications from fake? Renout van Hove will enlighten you on pragmatic and useful approaches to AI and Loes Meys will guide you on incorporating marketing automation in your business.

Learning how to live with and within the “new normal” gives rise to many questions and a great deal of uncertainty and requires very agile organisations. Luckily AI provides wonderful opportunities to deduce relevant data from the past to build your future. Dr. Lee Schlenker from the Business Analytics Institute will take a deep dive in how AI can help you with upcoming business challenges.

Now more than ever people are spending their time online. On the other hand it is even harder to reach and engage your audience. Kim Verhaegen from Grava will teach you how to use your data efficiently and discover new hybrid business and channel models with Bart Heilbron and Michel Lenaerts from Belgian Cycling Factory.
