Why You Should Be Super Excited about TFM 2016

200 speakers. 15 theatres. 100's of martech exhibitors. All free. TFM is delivering a super-charged show to match the pace of change in this exciting (yet daunting) time of marketing. With the dawn of smart analytics, A.I., marketing automation and a plethora of new technologies, marketing is transforming from an art to a science. Take a look at what you can discover at the show below.

2016 is an exciting, experimental and fast-moving time to be in marketing.

The speed of change is only increasing as smart analytics, A.I., marketing automation and new technologies transform marketing into a science.
Understandably, many marketing teams are struggling to adapt fast enough, under pressure to keep up with rising customer expectations and transform their business to a digital world.

These are some of the key themes keeping the marketing community on their toes, and we will be addressing at this year’s Technology For Marketing, 28-29 September, Olympia London.

200 speakers. 15 theatres. All free.

Running alongside eCommerce Expo and Customer Contact Expo, the event will have over 200+ speakers, across 15 theatres over the two days, with top brands and experts covering all the important topics.

Add in a healthy dose of inspiration and we believe we have cracked the formula of a content programme that will keep you ahead of curve and help set your strategic direction for 2017.

Behaviour from UX to EX: Using neuromarketing to put emotion at the heart of the brief and creating remarkable experience

Ecommerce stores are not exempt from creating remarkable shopping experiences. Just like shops on the high street, an online store should be an experience to remember. Tech will always change, but the one thing that will always be disruptive are people - which is why it is more important than ever to put human emotion at the heart of every design. Backed by principles of neuroscience, this workshop will educate attendees on why the future of UX - to be replaced by EX (emotional experience) - is in humanising the digital landscape.

Neuromarketing specialists Tom Head, Director and Daryll Scott, Director of Human Technology at Lab, will analyse the Keynote Arena's audiences' emotional responses when exposed to different websites and marketing messages. Gain insightful tips and advice for how you can try experiments like this yourself. @TomHeadLab @DaryllScott                                       Register now >>
