Here’s an overview of all the editorial sessions at MarTech next month, emphasizing pragmatic solutions and leadership at the intersection of marketing, technology and management:

Martech West Agenda 041618

All of these will be full 45-minute sessions that dig into the real-world dynamics behind successful marketing technology management. No fluff. No hype. No ulterior motive.

Start with a special evening reception on Monday, April 23, where we’ll reveal the entries and winners of The Stackies 2018: Marketing Tech Stack Awards to see dozens of examples of real-world marketing stacks from companies across many different industries.

(You still have time to enter The Stackies yourself until midnight on April 6!)

You’ll also have the opportunity to network with over 2,000 other senior marketing and technology leaders — and have the sort of informal peer-to-peer discussions that plug you into the “ground truth” of modern marketing technology and operations.

100 leading martech companies in our MarTech Expo Hall

Looking for just the right piece of marketing technology to complete your stack? Or want to serendipitously discover something you didn’t even know was possible? In our exhibit hall, you’ll have the chance to meet nearly 100 innovative marketing technology companies and to browse and demo their latest advancements firsthand.

But that’s just the start of what’s happening in the Expo Hall and during breaks.

Attend presentations about how to acquire and implement marketing technology in the “Discover MarTech Theater.” Real Story Group, a leading marketing technology consulting firm, will be presenting several times each day, along with vendors offering case studies on how to use their solutions.

You won’t want to miss the breakfast and lunch presentations from our Title and Presenting sponsors: Workfront, BrightCove, IBM, Lytics and Pantheon. In addition, the Solutions track features presentations from nearly a dozen market leaders including Fuel Cycle, Aprimo, Commerce Tools, Merkle, PegaSystems, Turtl, Tealium and Datorama.

Four amazing four-hour martech workshops
