Accelerating AI Adoption for Customer Loyalty - Insights with Salesforce and IBM

In this episode, Shannon Miller from IBM and Tom Bockholt from Salesforce discuss how they are enabling clients to accelerate the adoption of AI to transform and elevate customer loyalty strategies and the end to end customer experience.

They explore how innovative companies are using AI to drive hyper-personalization, respond to evolving customer expectations, and embed loyalty across the customer journey.
