September 10, 2025

Online

How AI Enrichment at the “Edge” and Composable Infrastructure Are Reshaping the Future of Marketing

In a world where AI is everywhere, one truth is becoming clear: your competitive advantage isn’t the model you use, it’s the data that fuels it.

Join Scott Brinker (ChiefMartec, HubSpot) and Patrick Harrington, Ph.D. (Head of ML & AI, MetaRouter) for a live 40-minute discussion and audience Q&A on why the “first mile” of data, the exact moment when it’s created, consented, and enriched, has become the most important frontier in marketing.

This fireside chat will explore:

How edge enrichment is turning raw clicks into real-time signals that drive better personalization, higher ROAS, and durable identity.

Why first-party data has become the most valuable asset for growth as third-party cookies disappear and retail media surges.

What CMOs, data leaders, and engineering teams must do today to seize early-mover advantage in this greenfield opportunity.

If you’re a marketing, data, or growth leader trying to harness AI for real business outcomes, this session will reframe how you think about data infrastructure, customer identity, and AI activation.

A few takeaways...

✅ What the “First Mile” is and why it matters now. How data created at the edge becomes your single biggest lever for AI-driven growth.
