CEO, AOL, Tim Armstrong believes Mobile is going to “dwarf” everything that has come before. With an unparalleled vision and huge ambitions, Armstrong will talk about why he thinks we are sitting at “the collision of the future of media and the future of advertising”.

Unlock Bigger and Better Opportunities Through Mobile

Allstate serves a vast customer base, but like most insurers customer interaction can be infrequent. Over the past few years, Allstate has leveraged mobile to create a range of exciting new engagement touch points with its customers. Allstate CMO Sanjay Gupta will share his perspective on how companies can unlock bigger and better opportunities with the right mobile strategy. Getting the basics right with a responsive website and a mobile app are table stakes every company must deliver on. With millions of eyeballs on mobile, the bigger question is how can you effectively stand out to capture more customer attention and traffic? Gupta will share how mobile is enabling an entirely different level of marketing – the kind we’ve only dreamt about in the past – and how brands can maximize this opportunity.

David Roman, CMO of global PC leader Lenovo, will give his views on how he has shifted the thinking and reprioritized his function to deliver on the promise of the Age of the Shareable Moment.

Afternoon Session

NAKED AND EXPOSED

With every technological advance, we become more dependent on our phones. We check them when we're working, when we're bored, when we're anxious, when we're in crowds and even when we're alone. Smart phones play a disproportionately irrational need in our daily lives and contain all of our most personal wants and needs. We've become so attached to them as tools, that we're all a bit naked without them. Which is why to innovate in mobile, marketers have underestimated a very effective and simple tool—empathy.

72andSunny's, Partner and Executive Creative Director, Matt Murphy explains why the focus of mobile marketing isn't about your brand, your product, or your cause but about the user, their behavior, and how empathy is your company's biggest tool in cracking innovative mobile marketing.
