By Caitlin Vance

The fifth annual Bluecore Summit hits NYC September 17-18, and it promises to deliver can’t-miss strategies and hands-on advice from retail marketing leaders.

Rockstar marketers from brands like TomboyX, Under Armour, Jockey and Shutterfly will take the stage alongside industry experts from Forrester and Bluecore. Discussions throughout the day will focus on using retail data to strengthen customer relationships, advancing marketing strategies with the new class of technology and scaling brand growth by breaking down organizational silos. Here’s a look at what to expect from Bluecore.

Understanding the Retail Data Model of the Future with Sherene Hilal and Max Bennett

Sherene Hilal, VP of Product Marketing and Business Operations at Bluecore, has spent her career looking to solve the problem of distributed commerce — that people buy where they are — and the challenge of discovery as the choice of products available and the places to buy these products continues to explode. She believes that Bluecore is uniquely suited to drive a future state of marketing where technology makes it simple for brands to connect people with the right products and offers.

Max Bennett, co-founder and VP of Product at Bluecore, is fascinated with finding ways in which artificial intelligence can help businesses run better. He believes retail is the industry where this transformation will occur first and is dedicated to leading the way.

Sherene and Max will take the stage at the Blueore Summit to discuss the technology required for brands to operate effectively in the next era of commerce. They’ll explain why this technology is fundamentally different from what we’ve seen to date, covering everything from the retail data model on which it’s built to the initiatives it makes possible.
