The Future of Customer Experience on the Commerce Live stage

Join Lori Cantwell (Lead CRO Strategist, Codal), Ryan Ethridge (Business Development Consultant, Codal), and Ali Afzalirad (CSO, Commerce) as they take the stage to explore how AI-driven experimentation is redefining the future of conversion. Together, these industry experts will unpack how leading brands are moving beyond basic demographic segmentation to deliver true, real-time personalization at scale.

Whether it is a B2C shopper demanding hyper-curated product discovery or a B2B procurement officer requiring frictionless, zero-touch reordering, the baseline for a successful customer experience has never been higher.

Our session will be Wednesday, April 29th at 1pm CST on the Sponsor Stage (Rooms 201–202). See you there!
