Beyond the Website: Digital Experience in the Age of AI
Sep 9, 2026 6:00 PM - 8:30 PM EST
The website used to be where your customers found you, and where you could shape what they saw. Now they're just as likely to form an impression somewhere else first, inside a search result, an LLM's answer, or an agent acting on their behalf, before they ever land on a page you control. The enterprises handling this well aren't the ones who moved fastest on AI. They're the ones whose content was structured to show up accurately wherever people are actually looking.
This dinner brings senior marketing and technology leaders together to talk through what that takes. The conversation covers AI discoverability as the next chapter of SEO, why content structure and architecture decide whether you can deliver across every channel at once, and how marketing and engineering teams are adjusting to keep up. And a harder question underneath it: when a model answers for your brand instead of your website, who owns getting it right?
BWG Connect, Dataweavers, Verndale & Contentstack invite you to join us for an interactive discussion over drinks and dinner with your peers! We'll explore the latest trends in the space and get your questions answered.
As always, there will be no sales pitches and dinner is complimentary.
Seating is limited, and RSVP is required.
