In today’s complex B2B landscape, buyers are more informed than ever, with access to AI-driven research and endless content. Yet, 81% of buyers report dissatisfaction with their purchasing experience. Why? Because it’s not about how you want to sell—it’s about how your customers want to buy.

In this webinar, Christina Thompson (GM, Studio, International, Informa TechTarget) and Matthew Stevens (CEO, MOI Global) share actionable strategies to build trust, reduce buyer friction, and create ABM programs that resonate with modern buyers.

Your ABM Problem Might Not Be Targeting. It’s Lack of Trust.

2026 EMEA B2B Marketing and Sales Predictions

Buyers are increasingly relying on artificial intelligence for research, and this is putting even more distance between sellers and their prospects. Yet even as pre-sales engagement is becoming harder, we still expect that human-to-human interaction will remain important in complex deals. For vendors, to be among the few who will be invited in by a buying group, you will have to already be in the consideration set before a deal cycle has begun. When fewer searches are coming to your website, you will need to find new ways to be seen and become trusted. This webinar explores how B2B companies can utilize the reality of buying networks to build more effective consideration paths for themselves as AI search accelerates. In the session, we’ll lay out what Informa TechTarget is doing to make things easier for go-to-market teams.

Join David Edwards, VP Product Management at Informa TechTarget and host Liam Rogers to discover how leveraging established audiences, behavioral insights, and powerful services combined can provide a more efficient path to breaking through.

AI vs Audiences: GTM Strategy and Tooling in the Attention Economy

There's a new broker standing between vendors and their buyers. Enter GenAI: the rapidly accelerating, traffic-decimating, instant answer machine. In its wake, once-reliable channels are no more. Buyer activity is increasingly blurred. And chances to build inroads with your targets seem even more elusive.

But with every strategy GenAI renders obsolete, a new one rises in its place.

Join our expert panel to learn how to seize the most lucrative opportunities to reinvent your content strategy for an AI-driven world.

The Future of Content Marketing in an AI-Driven World

If you have been to any marketing event in 2025, the conversation of AI and its usage comes to the forefront, but the pragmatic approach of AI and how to use it in building your 2026 GTM strategy is quite confusing. 

In this session we look at how to build a GTM plan from content to delivery, and how to effectively layer in AI in your planning. Then hear from our panel of experts on their 2026 GTM takeaways, use cases, and how they’re realistically approaching AI in B2B marketing.

The Pragmatic Approach to AI and Strategic Planning for 2026

Scaling in a crowded market is never easy. Especially when you’re a smaller brand facing long buying cycles, a need to engage and convince multiple decision makers and facing fierce competition for every bit of your buyers attention. Yet, Cato Networks, has managed to grow and expand globally while building trust and credibility with future buyers. 

In this session, Daniel Bleichman, Snr. Director of Marketing, Cato Networks, shares how his team leverages data-driven strategies and integrated marketing approach to fuel growth. You’ll see real-life examples of aligning brand and demand campaigns, scaling programs across markets and driving tangible results in complex B2B tech environments.

Cato Networks, a Marketing Case Study on Scaling from Startup

Too many marketers pour resources in either brand or demand – and then wonder why business growth stalls. Yet, forward-thinking marketers know that sustainable growth comes from orchestrating brand and demand campaigns to work in parallel. 

In this session, leaders from Cato Networks, Axonius and Informa TechTarget share how they turn marketing investment into measurable impact while earning credibility and trust with their audiences. You’ll learn how to identify what actually moves the needle, scale campaigns across global markets and ensure every action strengthens trust with your brand – so that brand and demand work in harmony to maximise business impact.

From Brand-to-Demand: The Pragmatic Playbook

Trust is an extremely powerful word in today’s B2B Marketing echelon. It’s no longer enough for your message to stand alone; it’s the trust signals behind it that truly matter. This need for trust is why the line between brand and demand marketing is fading, and savvy marketers are crafting their content approach to captivate, engage, and convert IT buyers. 

In this keynote, we explore bridging the gap between brand awareness and revenue-generating activities, and how to build validation through influential voices and results-driven content strategies.

Tethering Trust: Building a Brand-to-Demand Playbook

In today's challenging B2B marketing landscape, building trust has never been more critical—or more difficult. Join Mandi Tompkins as she reveals how successful marketers are navigating a world where 95% of your audience isn't ready to buy, buyers form opinions before they ever contact you, and purchase decisions involve many stakeholders and influencers.

This insightful session will explore:
- The Trust Crisis: Todays buyers demand authenticity and proof in a content-saturated world. With the rise of AI generated content consumers need to know what is real and what to trust.
- The Expert Advantage: How partnering with trusted SMEs, media voices, and analysts creates a powerful network of authority that buyers trust
- The Innovation Imperative: Strategies for creating connected content ecosystems that meet buyers at every stage of their nonlinear buying journey

The Trust Advantage: Content Strategy at the Intersection of Innovation & Expertise

The outdated battle between brand or demand marketing is over. Today’s savvy marketers aren’t choosing one over the other. They’re blending both approaches to craft content that captivates, engages and converts IT buyers. Join Jane Qin Medeiros (Informa TechTarget) as she explores the future of brand-to-demand marketing and how class-leading B2B marketers bridge the gap between brand awareness and revenue-generating activities with powerful, results-driven content strategies.

Create, Engage, Convert: The Brand-to-Demand Playbook

Research indicates that while only 2% of sales conversions are made during the first point of contact, roughly 80% develop between the 5th and 12th contact attempt. To generate the most ROI from lead gen activities and increase conversion rates, demand generation marketers must drive quality engagement with priority contacts and enable their sales colleagues to orchestrate personalized outreach and lead follow-up to create more quality touchpoints during this window of opportunity.

If you are facing continuous pressure to build sales pipeline, listen in as members of Informa TechTarget’s award-winning Customer Success team share a proven blueprint for effective lead follow-up. You'll learn how to engage buyers by incorporating nurture programs, optimizing SDR motions, and empowering tailored sales outreach with intent data. You'll also get insights into how marketing automation, integration platforms, and even artificial intelligence can help boost ROI and increase conversions at scale.

Your Roadmap to Driving Conversions with Effective Lead Follow-Up

Many GTM teams dream of building a demand gen approach that yields high quality leads that are ready to be converted into winning opportunities. But this doesn’t happen by chance; it requires an integrated and aligned approach to identifying the right accounts and engaging them with contextually relevant messaging. Many teams struggle to do this effectively, yet Schneider Electric, a global leader in energy management and automation, has developed a holistic go-to-market approach that’s paying off in droves. What’s their secret to success?

Join Christian O’Neill, Senior Customer Success Manager (Informa TechTarget), as he sits down with Alexander Pasch, Digital Marketing Transformation Manager (Schneider Electric), to discuss how Schneider Electric integrates insights from real purchase intent data into their GTM playbooks.

Our latest strategic session in this series examines the importance (and challenges) of using graphic design to help successfully communicate promises of value. The goal is to aid marketing and business leaders like you in identifying substantive design gaps and the impediments standing between where you are and where you want to be.
