Live & Virtual Engagement

Virtual Executive Roundtables

Available throughout the year, a Virtual Executive Roundtable is a small invite-only gathering of 12-15 senior CX leaders. This 90-minute exclusive interactive session will provide an intimate setting for the sponsor to drive conversation and thought leadership on the state of CX today.

A Virtual Executive Roundtable is ideal for partners looking to engage and build relationships with key decision makers in an exclusive VIP setting.

• Partners are positioned as the thought leaders for the session.
• Food, collateral, and giveaways are provided to attendees prior to/at event based on format.
• Partners are responsible for the cost of the lunch, giveaways, and shipping.
• Event production, marketing, and fulfillment are facilitated by Execs In The Know.

Subject Matter Briefings

Focused Subject Matter Briefings offer an unparalleled opportunity to meet with CX decision makers, position your brand as expert thought leaders, share best practices and unfiltered information with brands who are seeking it, and network with senior industry professionals.

Our Briefing Series will focus on solving our corporate brand partners’ most pressing customer experience problems.

The Briefing Series will focus on analytics to drive value, outsourcing as a strategic game changer, and leveraging technology with purpose. Corporate brands with pressing challenges will discuss them openly with an expert panel of CX thought leaders who can help guide them through the complex challenges. Briefing sponsorship includes three hours of direct engagement with the audience. Briefings place your brand on stage in a panel format, positioning you and your company as subject matter experts to an audience that has specific and direct interest in the subject matter.

Customer Response Summits

After over 10 years of Customer Response Summits, they continue to be our two signature spring and fall events of the year. We will be celebrating our leaders, partners, and over a decade of inspiring CX excellence.

The Customer Response Summit Series continues to showcase firsthand how global brands are challenging the “status quo” of traditional and emerging customer care channels. Over ten years ago, we talked about how social media was changing the CX landscape, and we will continue to tap into the strength of our community where leading brands will share their insights into progress topics that are critical to future CX success.

Customer Response Summit is more than a conference – it’s an intimate and laser-focused forum, providing outstanding opportunities to directly engage with some of the brightest minds in customer leadership -“Leaders Learning From Leaders.” The strength of this forum lies within the innovative design of informative sessions, interactive workshops, relevant industry tours, specialized networking opportunities, and dynamic social engagement activities.
