As the keynote speaker, Adam Blitzer will give an overview on marketing automation, discuss consolidation in the space, and project where it’s headed.

Then hear first hand from Stephanie Ayers of Perceptive Software and other corporate marketers who live in the day-to-day trenches of marketing automation.
