Think Summit is an annual event hosted by Movable Ink focused on providing practical advice, strategy, and inspiration to loyalty, CRM, and digital marketers. Hosted in New York City, the event attracts attendees from all industries representing some of the world’s most innovative brands.

Marketer & Machine

The integration of human intelligence with the power of machines has opened up new horizons, presenting endless possibilities for the future. As a core theme of this year’s Think Summit, speakers covered various topics embracing the rapidly evolving landscape of technology.

With over 1000 attendees, 50+ speakers, and multiple content tracks hosted in New York City and London, our 2023 global Think Summit events have been the most successful to date; driving brand engagement while showcasing product innovation, advances in AI technology, and connecting leading marketers across all industries.

Technological change has always created both excitement and unease.
AI will be a force multiplier for every marketing team:
It will boost our creativity; deepen our insights; and increase our productivity.
We’ll discover profound new ways to delight our customers and that… is at the heart of human-centered marketing.’ — Vivek Sharma, CEO & Founder, Movable Ink

Embracing a man and machine approach, all creative for this year’s event was produced by collaborating with technology.

We started by implementing our local instance of AI utilizing models to produce a series of branded imagery the design team could integrate into promotional materials and digital assets such as intro sequences, video bumpers, graphic loops, and even a custom event soundtrack generated by juxtaposing generative AI & sound mixing technology.

Human-Centered Marketing Powered By AI

Movable Ink Da Vinci’s human-centered approach to AI prioritizes the customer over the campaign. The AI aligns the right content to the right customer at the right time, creating the optimal experience without compromising revenue.

“We were over-messaging with multiple blasts a day without knowing how to extract ourselves from that pattern. But the Da Vinci solution is that missing piece for us — being able to maximize the relevancy of content to an individual subscriber.” — Sarah Rasmusen, EVP and Chief Innovation Officer, Lands’ End
