Transforming the Role of the CMO (11:45am - 12:20pm ET)
The remit of the CMO has never been broader, and the pressure placed on them by the macroeconomic environment and the C-suite has never been greater. In this high-stakes context, a new generation of CMOs has emerged, successfully reimagining everything about their role, starting with re-claiming the growth agenda and bringing the voice of the customer into the boardroom.

Unpacking critical findings from MediaLink’s The Marketer’s Forecast 2024 (TMF24) – a global annual study of marketing leaders’ pain points and opportunities – Jonah Minton and Kimberly Brown Oredugba will shed light on the trends transforming marketers’ reality and the behaviors the savviest ones are adopting in response.
