Written by Paul Roetzer | Oct 21, 2018 6:10:00 PM

Do you have an artificial intelligence story to tell?

If so, the Marketing Artificial Intelligence Conference (MAICON) call for speakers is now open, and we want to hear from you. The submission deadline is Friday, Dec. 21, 2018.

We’re looking for authors, entrepreneurs, educators, practitioners and experts who can help make AI approachable and actionable for marketers. We’re particularly interested in brand-side marketing leaders who can share case studies and real-life experiences piloting and scaling AI in their organizations.

The event is at the Huntington Convention Center of Cleveland, July 16 - 18, 2019, and features keynotes, breakout sessions, interactive workshops and immersive experiences.

MAICON is designed to help marketers truly understand AI, educate their teams, garner executive support, pilot priority AI uses cases, and develop a near-term strategy for successfully scaling AI.
