Forrester: The GTM Singularity Is Collapsing Traditional Go-To-Market ApproachesApril 27, 2026 12:00 PM
Business Wire
Unveiled at B2B Summit North America, Forrester’s GTM singularity research urges B2B leaders to shed old go-to-market principles as buying gets more complex
Forrester’s (Nasdaq: FORR) latest research, The GTM Singularity Is Here, unveiled today at B2B Summit North America, is a clarion call to B2B leaders across marketing, sales, customer success, and product functions to finally discard decades-old go-to-market (GTM) practices and embrace a new ARC (augmented, resilient, and collaborative) GTM approach that engages today’s AI-enabled buyers and customers.
Despite years of volatility driven by changing buyer behavior and unprecedented information access, B2B firms have failed to change how they engage with buyers — clinging to ineffective marketing practices such as impersonal mass emailing, marketing-qualified lead obsession, gated content, and siloed teams. AI is quickly making these practices untenable as it transforms buyer journeys and hands even more power to buyers.
As the GTM singularity takes hold, B2B firms must operate with a customer-obsessed go-to-market mindset and align their offerings to the outcomes their customers value. Forrester urges leaders to adopt a new GTM approach based on these ARC principles:
Augmented: As AI agents augment the B2B GTM workforce, leaders will connect AI agents to key B2B GTM initiatives. At the same time, leaders will treat buyer agents as members of the buying network and supply them with relevant content. The goal of this human and machine augmentation must be to amplify value for the customer.
Resilient: Most firms update their GTM plans annually at most. But as buyer behavior shifts faster and volatility rises, the GTM singularity presents the opportunity to abandon static approaches that no longer serve the company or the customer and instead anchor decisions in customer needs.
Collaborative: Sales, marketing, customer success, and product teams still operate in silos. Collaboration necessitates a shared, unified view of the prospect and customer, requiring transparency across teams.
Additionally, Forrester outlines the following best practices for B2B leaders to thrive in the GTM singularity era:
Overcome the visibility vacuum to earn the right to engage. When buyers turn to answer engines, they seek information to make confident decisions. As a result, B2B leaders need to design content for humans, buyer agents, and answer engines alike. This requires more personalized and ungated information, delivered at scale through sharper segmentation and more nuanced personas.
Prioritize preference-building to influence decisive buyers. With purchase and retention decisions hinging on vendor perceptions, building preference early and throughout the buyer journey is critical. This means dismantling the divide between brand and demand and ensuring that the clarity of messaging permeates the full buying network.
Drive an accountability reset to advance client objectives. GTM teams face growing pressure to prove business impact in AI-enabled buying environments. Since most teams still rely on buyer engagement metrics, however, which are no longer an accurate indicator of performance in AI-driven buying, B2B firms should codify a return on objective (ROO) approach that ties metrics more directly to customer goals.
Calibrate the work of humans and AI to amplify the value of both. While AI agents are learning to reason and mimic seasoned B2B GTM professionals, humans will remain GTM’s most valuable asset, even as roles evolve through AI augmentation, cocreation, and simulation. To ensure that AI amplifies rather than replaces human impact, onboard AI agents as roles, not tools, and shift focus from automation to outcomes.
“The GTM singularity is a reckoning for B2B leaders — forcing them to rethink their mandate entirely, including how they market, sell, and deliver their offerings to buyers to maximize customer value and drive business growth,” said Dave Frankland, event host, vice president, and research director at Forrester. “The impact of the GTM singularity will be seismic, requiring B2B firms to let go of entrenched practices and establish new ways of working. But it is also an opportunity for B2B leaders to rethink how they establish trust and build relationships with their prospects, clients, and beyond.”

Les 10 technologies émergentes de Forrester pour 2026 : l’IA ne se limite plus aux flux de travail numériquesApril 16, 2026 9:30 AM
Business Wire
L’entrée de l’IA dans le monde physique a déjà un impact tangible pour les consommateurs
Forrester (Nasdaq : FORR) a publié aujourd’hui son rapport intitulé Les 10 technologies émergentes de 2026, qui met en évidence un tournant décisif dans l’évolution de l’IA, passant de l’expérimentation numérique à la transformation du monde réel. L’IA dépasse le cadre des logiciels pour s’étendre aux environnements physiques, alimentant des robots, des véhicules et des expériences ambiantes qui modifient déjà la façon dont les consommateurs communiquent, travaillent et achètent.
À mesure que le rythme de l’innovation en matière d’IA s’accélère, les logiciels agents et l’IA physique façonneront les prochaines expériences des consommateurs, tandis que des technologies telles que les modèles de pointe et la sécurité de l’IA seront fondamentales pour alimenter l’innovation future. Cette étude classe les 10 principales technologies émergentes en fonction de leur impact sur les horizons de bénéfices à court, moyen et long terme, afin d’aider les entreprises et les dirigeants à hiérarchiser leurs investissements. Principales conclusions :
Les technologies émergentes à court terme qui passent rapidement de la phase d’essai à une utilisation réelle, offrant des avantages aux premiers utilisateurs avec des analyses de rentabilité solides d’ici deux ans :
Le commerce agentique. Les entreprises verront bientôt un retour sur investissement dans leurs propres environnements, tels que les applications ou les sites web, où les marques peuvent tirer parti du commerce agentique et de la personnalisation pour réduire les frictions et améliorer les ventes. L’adoption dans des environnements tiers prendra jusqu’à trois ans de plus, à mesure que les écosystèmes se développent et que la technologie sous-jacente arrive à maturité.
Sécurité IA et technologies de confiance. À mesure que l’IA générative et agentique se généralise dans les entreprises, des contrôles intégrés en matière de sécurité, de gouvernance et de confiance deviennent essentiels. Les secteurs qui dépendent de modèles prédictifs et de systèmes décisionnels à enjeux élevés, tels que les services financiers, la santé et le secteur public, en ressentiront les effets en premier.
Technologies émergentes à moyen terme qui exigent de la rigueur, une vision et une tolérance au risque importante en échange d’une récompense plus importante au cours des deux à cinq prochaines années :
Développement logiciel agentique. L’ASD permettra d’accélérer le cycle de vie du développement logiciel à mesure que les agents génèrent et affinent les artefacts logiciels, mais il faudra encore quelques années pour que cette technologie apporte des avantages significatifs, le temps que la coordination des agents s’améliore et que des garde-fous plus solides soient mis en place.
Robots humanoïdes. L’IA physique et la robotique élimineront les goulots d’étranglement en matière de main-d’œuvre dans tous les secteurs et ouvriront la voie à des systèmes capables de s’adapter à la volée, mais cette technologie n’apportera qu’une valeur limitée à court terme tant que les organisations n’auront pas surmonté les défis liés à l’intégration, à la mise à l’échelle, à la sécurité, aux données et à la main-d’œuvre.
Une technologie émergente à long terme qui mettra plus de temps à apporter une valeur tangible aux entreprises :
Informatique quantique. Les progrès en matière de matériel quantique, d’algorithmes et d’architectures hybrides laissent entrevoir de futures percées dans les domaines de l’optimisation, de la simulation, de la cryptographie et de la science des matériaux, mais une valeur commerciale à grande échelle n’est pas pour demain. Les services financiers, l’industrie pharmaceutique et le secteur manufacturier seront les premiers à bénéficier de l’informatique quantique.
« Avec l’émergence constante de nouvelles technologies, les dirigeants d’entreprise et les responsables technologiques doivent planifier leurs investissements technologiques en fonction de la valeur, du risque et des délais de rentabilité potentiels », déclare Sharyn Leaver, directrice de la recherche chez Forrester. « Alors que l’IA continue de dominer le classement des technologies émergentes pour 2026, les technologies d’IA varient considérablement en termes de capacités et d’impact. Nos recherches visent à aider les dirigeants d’entreprise et les responsables technologiques à répartir leurs investissements en identifiant les technologies à court terme susceptibles de générer des retours rapides, ainsi que les paris à long terme qui exigent davantage d’efforts, des investissements plus importants et la capacité de gérer davantage de risques. »

Forrester-Report „Top 10 Emerging Technologies For 2026“: KI ist nicht länger auf digitale Workflows beschränktApril 16, 2026 3:30 AM
Business Wire
Der Vorstoß der KI in die physische Welt zeigt bereits spürbare Auswirkungen für Verbraucher
Forrester (NASDAQ: FORR) hat heute seinen Bericht The Top 10 Emerging Technologies In 2026 veröffentlicht, der den tiefgreifenden Wandel der KI von digitalen Experimenten hin zu einer Transformation der realen Welt beleuchtet. KI überschreitet die Grenzen der Software und erobert physische Umgebungen – von Robotern über Fahrzeuge bis hin zu kontextsensitiven Anwendungen, die bereits heute verändern, wie Verbraucher kommunizieren, arbeiten und Kaufentscheidungen treffen.
Angesichts des anhaltend hohen Innovationstempos werden agentische Software und physische KI die kommenden Kundenerlebnisse prägen. Technologien wie Frontier-Modelle und KI-Sicherheit werden dabei eine zentrale Rolle für zukünftige Innovationen einnehmen. Die Studie kategorisiert die zehn wichtigsten Zukunftstechnologien nach ihren Auswirkungen auf kurz-, mittel- und langfristige Nutzenhorizonte, um Unternehmen und Führungskräften dabei zu unterstützen, ihre Investitionen nach Prioritäten zu ordnen. Hier die wichtigsten Ergebnisse:
Kurzfristige, aufstrebende Technologien, die rasch von der Testphase in den praktischen Einsatz überführt werden und Early Adopters innerhalb der kommenden zwei Jahre greifbare Vorteile mit soliden Geschäftsmodellen bieten:
Agentic Commerce. Unternehmen werden in eigenen Kanälen wie Apps oder Websites einen ROI erzielen, indem sie mithilfe von Agentic Commerce und Personalisierung Reibungsverluste verringern und den Umsatz steigern können. Die Einführung in nicht firmeneigenen Umgebungen wird noch bis zu drei Jahre dauern, da sich die Ökosysteme zunächst weiterentwickeln und die zugrunde liegenden Technologien erst noch zur Reife gelangen müssen.
Technologien für KI-Sicherheit und Vertrauen. Da generative und agentische KI in Unternehmen immer mehr Verbreitung finden, werden integrierte Sicherheits-, Governance- und Vertrauenskontrollen immer wichtiger. Branchen wie Finanzdienstleistungen, Gesundheitswesen oder öffentlicher Sektor, die auf Vorhersagemodelle und Entscheidungssysteme mit hohem Risiko zurückgreifen, werden die Auswirkungen zuerst spüren.
Mittelfristige Zukunftstechnologien, die Disziplin, Weitsicht und eine hohe Risikobereitschaft erfordern, um in den nächsten zwei bis fünf Jahren höhere Erträge zu erzielen:
Agentische Softwareentwicklung. ASD wird den Software-Entwicklungszyklus beschleunigen, da Agenten Software-Artefakte erstellen und perfektionieren. Bis diese Technologie jedoch echte Vorteile bringt, werden noch einige Jahre vergehen, da zunächst die Koordination der Agenten verbessert und strengere Sicherheitsvorkehrungen eingeführt werden müssen.
Humanoide Roboter. Physische KI und Robotik werden Personalengpässe in allen Branchen beseitigen und den Weg für Systeme ebnen, die schnell auf Veränderungen reagieren können. Allerdings wird diese Technologie kurzfristig nur einen begrenzten Nutzen bieten, solange Unternehmen die Herausforderungen in den Bereichen Integration, Skalierung, Sicherheit, Daten und Personal noch nicht bewältigt haben.
Eine aufstrebende Technologie, die einen messbaren Nutzen für Unternehmen erst nach längerer Zeit erbringen wird:
Quantencomputer. Fortschritte bei Quantenhardware, Algorithmen und Hybridarchitekturen lassen auf zukünftige Durchbrüche in den Bereichen Optimierung, Simulation, Kryptografie und Materialwissenschaften hoffen, doch bis zu einer breiten kommerziellen Nutzung werden noch Jahre ins Land gehen. Finanzdienstleistungen, die Pharmabranche und das verarbeitende Gewerbe werden zuerst von der Quanteninformatik profitieren.
„Angesichts der stetig aufkommenden neuen Technologien müssen Führungskräfte aus Wirtschaft und Technologie ihre Technologieinvestitionen auf der Grundlage von Wert, Risiko und potenziellen Amortisationszeiträumen planen“, so Sharyn Leaver, Chief Research Officer bei Forrester. „Während KI auch 2026 weiterhin die Liste der wichtigsten Zukunftstechnologien anführt, unterscheiden sich KI-Technologien erheblich in Bezug auf ihre Leistungsfähigkeit und ihre Auswirkungen. Unsere Studie soll Führungskräften aus Wirtschaft und Technologie helfen, ihre Investitionen zu diversifizieren, indem wir kurzfristige Technologien identifizieren, die schnelle Erträge bringen, aber auch längerfristige Investitionen, die mehr Aufwand, grundlegende Investitionen und die Fähigkeit erfordern, höhere Risiken zu tragen.“

Forrester’s Top 10 Emerging Technologies For 2026: AI Is No Longer Confined To Digital WorkflowsApril 15, 2026 9:30 AM
Business Wire
AI’s move into the physical world is already delivering tangible impact for consumers
Forrester (Nasdaq: FORR) today released its The Top 10 Emerging Technologies In 2026 report, which highlights a pivotal shift in AI from digital experimentation to real-world transformation. AI is moving beyond software into physical environments — powering robots, vehicles, and ambient experiences that are already changing how consumers communicate, work, and buy.
As the pace of AI innovation continues, agentic software and physical AI will shape what consumers experience next, while technologies such as frontier models and AI security will be foundational to fueling future innovation. The research categorizes the top 10 emerging technologies by their impacts over short-term, medium-term, and long-term benefit horizons to help enterprises and leaders prioritize their investments. Key findings include:
Short-term emerging technologies that are quickly moving from trial to real use, delivering benefits to early adopters with solid business cases within the next two years:
Agentic commerce. Businesses will soon see ROI in owned environments such as apps or websites, where brands can leverage agentic commerce and personalization to lower friction and improve sales. Uptake in non-owned environments will take up to three years more as ecosystems develop and the underlying technology matures.
AI security and trust technologies. As generative and agentic AI scale across enterprises, integrated security, governance, and trust controls are becoming essential. Sectors that depend on predictive models and high-stakes decisioning systems, such as financial services, healthcare, and the public sector, will see impact first.
Medium-term emerging technologies that require discipline, vision, and a substantial tolerance for risk in return for a larger reward in the next two to five years:
Agentic software development. ASD will unlock software development lifecycle acceleration as agents generate and refine software artifacts, but the technology will take a few more years to deliver significant benefits as agent coordination improves and stronger guardrails are implemented.
Humanoid robots. Physical AI and robotics will eliminate labor bottlenecks in every industry and make way for systems to adapt on the fly, but the technology will deliver limited near-term value until organizations overcome integration, scaling, safety, data, and workforce challenges.
A long-term emerging technology that will take longer to deliver tangible value for enterprises:
Quantum computing. Advances in quantum hardware, algorithms, and hybrid architectures point toward future breakthroughs in optimization, simulation, cryptography, and materials science, but broad commercial value remains years away. Financial services, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing will benefit from quantum first.
“With new technologies constantly emerging, business and technology leaders need to plan their tech investments based on value, risk, and potential payout timelines,” said Sharyn Leaver, chief research officer at Forrester. “While AI continues to dominate the top emerging technologies list for 2026, AI technologies vary widely in capability and impact. Our research is designed to help business and technology leaders spread their investments out by identifying shorter-term technologies that can deliver quick returns and longer-term bets that require more effort, more foundational investment, and the capacity to manage more risk.”

Forrester Continues To Use AI To Transform How Research And Advisory Insights Are Delivered To ClientsMarch 12, 2026 8:40 AM
Business Wire
Embeds generative AI capabilities through Forrester AI, enabling clients to access trusted insights directly within their daily tools and workflows
Forrester (Nasdaq: FORR) today announced that Forrester AI (formerly Izola), its generative AI tool, is now certified for Microsoft Teams and available as an app in Microsoft Marketplace. The Forrester AI Teams app is free for current Forrester clients and provides a new channel for access to its proprietary research, data, and frameworks not available through any public AI models. As a result, Forrester’s clients can make smarter, more informed, and data-driven decisions, drawn from relevant Forrester research in their own work environment. With no constraints on the number of questions asked or responses generated, Forrester AI is the only app that delivers integrated research and advice across business and technology leaders, eliminating silos and enabling better decision-making.
As the leading research and advisory firm harnessing the power of AI, this initiative marks another step forward in expanding Forrester’s AI capabilities. Last year, the company launched Forrester AI Access, a self-service AI offering that equips clients with trusted insights and advice, enabling them to validate ideas, align on best practices, and make smarter decisions faster. Forrester AI Access extended the reach of Forrester’s research portfolio, making proprietary data, guidance, and best practice research available to more stakeholders across organizations. Prior to that, Forrester introduced Forrester AI, now an integral part of Forrester’s client experience, with rapid growth in both user adoption and prompt activity. Client adoption of Forrester AI continues to grow rapidly, with overall usage up 55% year over year and prompt volume growing by 65%.
“For years, Forrester has actively covered AI in its research to help clients navigate its opportunities, risks, and real-world applications to move beyond the hype to real business impact — longer than anyone in our industry,” said Carrie Johnson, chief product officer at Forrester. “Since first introducing generative AI functionality for our clients in 2023, we have worked side by side with them to ensure that they can access our trusted research and guidance when, where, and how they need them. What leaders need today is judgment they can trust to make confident business decisions so they can move faster, reduce costs, and lower risk. While public LLMs can generate information, only a firm like Forrester can deliver trusted human expertise backed by research and data.”
The Forrester AI Teams app is available to all active Forrester Decisions, Forrester Market Insights, and Forrester AI Access license holders. Unlike public large language models, Forrester does not use prompts entered into the app and the responses they generate to train its models, meaning that clients can access trusted insights with confidence while maintaining full confidentiality and control of their data.

Forrester révèle le programme de ses événements CX 2026 afin d'aider à relever les défis que l'IA ne peut pas relever seuleMarch 2, 2026 3:36 PM
Business Wire
Cette série d'événements internationaux réunira des leaders dans les domaines de l'expérience client, du marketing et du commerce numérique lors du CX Forum East, du CX Forum West et du CX Summit EMEA
Forrester (Nasdaq : FORR) a annoncé aujourd'hui le programme de sa série d'événements internationaux consacrés à l'expérience client (CX) : le CX Summit EMEA, qui se tiendra à Amsterdam du 8 au 10 juin 2026 ; CX Forum East, qui se tiendra à New York les 16 et 17 juin 2026 ; et CX Forum West, qui se tiendra à San Francisco les 29 et 30 juin 2026.
Aujourd'hui, les responsables de l'expérience client, du marketing et du commerce numérique subissent une pression croissante pour exploiter l'IA afin de concevoir des parcours clients plus intelligents de bout en bout, d'automatiser les services, de mettre en œuvre des agents IA et d'offrir une véritable personnalisation à grande échelle, alors que la confiance des consommateurs est au plus bas. Si l'IA promet d'améliorer la rapidité et l'efficacité, chaque expérience client repose sur des fondements que l'IA ne peut à elle seule construire. Pour instaurer la confiance, les organisations doivent intégrer la créativité humaine, le contexte, l'identité du client et des données de qualité dans chaque interaction avec le client. Le thème de cette année, « Construire l'expérience que l'IA ne peut pas offrir », permettra aux dirigeants de passer d'une utilisation accrue de l'IA à la création d'expériences améliorées grâce à la combinaison de l'humain et de l'IA.
Lors de ces événements, les participants auront accès aux dernières recherches, cadres et idées de Forrester pour être à la pointe de l'ère de l'IA et offrir de meilleurs résultats à leurs clients. En outre, les participants pourront prendre part à des programmes spéciaux, notamment l'Executive Leadership Exchange sur invitation, des expériences immersives qui simulent des aventures CX, une célébration des Total Experience Honorees de Forrester et un nouveau programme Future Leaders conçu pour les jeunes professionnels nommés par des sponsors seniors au sein de leurs organisations.
Les sessions principales de la série d'événements CX de cette année comprennent :
Optimisez votre expérience totale avec l'indice EX de Forrester : jusqu'à présent, prouver que l'expérience employé (EX) stimule la valeur de la marque et la valeur client reposait en grande partie sur des preuves indirectes. Cette session dévoilera le Total Experience Score élargi de Forrester, montrant comment les changements dans le sentiment et l'engagement des employés se traduisent par de meilleurs résultats commerciaux, une plus grande satisfaction client et une croissance accrue.
La méfiance à l'ère de l'IA : alors que les contenus générés par l'IA, les deepfakes et l'automatisation brouillent la réalité, les consommateurs remettent tout en question. Cette session explore la manière dont les responsables CX, marketing et numériques doivent repenser l'expérience offerte par leur marque pour réussir dans une ère de méfiance généralisée.
Le fondement humain de l'entreprise alimentée par l'IA : pour créer une feuille de route vers une expérience totale alimentée par les humains et l'IA, les entreprises doivent s'assurer que leur marque reste humaine dans un monde où l'IA tend à tout uniformiser. Découvrez comment construire une base solide pour l'entreprise du futur, que l'IA ne peut ni inventer ni réparer comme par magie.
« L'IA bouleverse tous les aspects de l'expérience client d'une manière que nous n'aurions pas pu imaginer il y a encore quelques années », a déclaré Keith Johnston, vice-président et directeur de recherche du groupe Forrester, « mais à mesure que les interactions automatisées deviennent la norme et que la confiance des consommateurs se fragmente encore davantage, les marques qui s'imposeront seront celles qui utilisent l'IA pour générer de la valeur commerciale tout en acceptant ses lacunes, à savoir son incapacité à reproduire les qualités humaines telles que la créativité, le jugement, l'empathie et la connexion. Lors des événements CX de cette année, les dirigeants apprendront à utiliser l'IA à bon escient et à la développer de manière réfléchie. »

Forrester gibt die Agenda für seine CX-Veranstaltungen 2026 bekannt, um die Herausforderungen anzugehen, die KI allein nicht bewältigen kannMarch 2, 2026 3:36 PM
Business Wire
Die globale Veranstaltungsreihe bringt Führungskräfte aus den Bereichen Kundenerfahrung, Marketing und digitales Geschäft beim CX Forum East, CX Forum West und CX Summit EMEA zusammen
Forrester Forrester (Nasdaq: FORR) hat heute die Agenda für seine globale Veranstaltungsreihe zum Thema Kundenerfahrung (CX) bekannt gegeben: CX Summit EMEA, die vom 8. bis 10. Juni 2026 in Amsterdam stattfindet;CX Forum East das vom 16. bis 17. Juni 2026 in New York City stattfindet, und CX Forum West, das vom 29. bis 30. Juni 2026 in San Francisco stattfindet.
Heute stehen Führungskräfte aus den Bereichen CX, Marketing und Digital Business unter zunehmendem Druck, KI zu nutzen, um intelligentere End-to-End-Kundenreisen zu gestalten, Services zu automatisieren, KI-Agenten zu operationalisieren und echte Personalisierung in großem Maßstab zu liefern – und das alles, während das Vertrauen der Verbraucher auf einem historischen Tiefstand ist. KI verspricht zwar, die Messlatte für Geschwindigkeit und Effizienz höher zu legen, aber hinter jeder Kundenerfahrung steht eine Grundlage, die KI allein nicht schaffen kann. Um Vertrauen aufzubauen, müssen Unternehmen menschliche Kreativität, Kontext, Kundenidentität und hochwertige Daten in jede Kundeninteraktion einfließen lassen. Das diesjährige Thema „Build The Experience AI Can’t" (Erlebnisse schaffen, die KI nicht kann) wird Führungskräfte dazu befähigen, den Fokus von mehr KI auf bessere Erlebnisse zu verlagern, die von Menschen und KI gemeinsam geschaffen werden.
Bei den Veranstaltungen erhalten die Teilnehmer Zugang zu den neuesten Forschungsergebnissen, Frameworks und Erkenntnissen von Forrester, um in diesem KI-Zeitalter führend zu sein und bessere Kundenergebnisse zu erzielen. Darüber hinaus können die Teilnehmer an speziellen Programmen teilnehmen, darunter das nur auf Einladung zugängliche Executive Leadership Exchange, immersive Erlebnisse, die CX-Abenteuer simulieren, eine Feier zu Ehren der Total Experience Honorees von Forrester und ein neues Future-Leaders-Programm, das für junge Fachkräfte konzipiert ist, die von erfahrenen Sponsoren in ihren Unternehmen nominiert wurden.
Die Keynote-Sessions der diesjährigen CX-Veranstaltungsreihe umfassen:
Maximieren Sie Ihre Total Experience mit dem EX-Index von Forrester : Bislang stützte sich der Nachweis, wie die Mitarbeitererfahrung (EX) den Marken- und Kundenwert steigert, weitgehend auf indirekte Belege. In dieser Session wird der erweiterte Total Experience Score von Forrester vorgestellt, der zeigt, wie sich Veränderungen in der Mitarbeiterstimmung und im Mitarbeiterengagement in stärkeren Geschäftsergebnissen, höherer Kundenzufriedenheit und Wachstum niederschlagen.
Misstrauen im Zeitalter der KI : Da KI-generierte Inhalte, Deepfakes und Automatisierung die Realität verwischen, hinterfragen Verbraucher alles. Diese Keynote untersucht, wie CX-, Marketing- und Digital-Führungskräfte die Erfahrung, die ihre Marke bietet, überdenken müssen, um in einer Zeit des allgegenwärtigen Misstrauens erfolgreich zu sein.
Die menschliche Grundlage des KI-gestützten Unternehmens : Um einen Fahrplan für eine von Menschen und KI gestützte Gesamterfahrung zu erstellen, müssen Unternehmen sicherstellen, dass ihre Marke in einer Welt der KI-Gleichförmigkeit menschlich bleibt. Erfahren Sie, wie Sie eine starke Grundlage für das Unternehmen der Zukunft schaffen können, die KI nicht einfach aus dem Nichts erfinden oder reparieren kann.
„KI verändert jeden Aspekt des Kundenerlebnisses auf eine Weise, die wir uns noch vor wenigen Jahren nicht hätten vorstellen können“, so Keith Johnston, Vice President und Group Research Director bei Forrester. „Da automatisierte Interaktionen jedoch zur Norm werden und das Vertrauen der Verbraucher immer mehr schwindet, werden diejenigen Marken erfolgreich sein, die KI einsetzen, um den Geschäftswert zu steigern, und gleichzeitig ihre Schwächen akzeptieren – nämlich die Unfähigkeit, menschliche Eigenschaften wie Kreativität, Urteilsvermögen, Empathie und Verbundenheit nachzuahmen. Auf den diesjährigen CX-Veranstaltungen lernen Führungskräfte, wie sie KI zielgerichtet einsetzen und bewusst aufbauen können.“

Forrester Announces The Agenda For Its 2026 CX Events To Help Address The Challenges AI Can’t Handle AloneMarch 2, 2026 9:30 AM
Business Wire
The global event series will bring together customer experience, marketing, and digital business leaders at CX Forum East, CX Forum West, and CX Summit EMEA
Forrester (Nasdaq: FORR) today announced the agenda for its global customer experience (CX) event series: CX Summit EMEA, being held in Amsterdam, June 8–10, 2026; CX Forum East, being held in New York City, June 16–17, 2026; and CX Forum West, being held in San Francisco, June 29–30, 2026.
Today, CX, marketing, and digital business leaders are under mounting pressure to leverage AI to architect smarter end-to-end customer journeys, automate service, operationalize AI agents, and deliver true personalization at scale — all while consumer trust is at an all-time low. While AI is promising to raise the bar for speed and efficiency, beneath every customer experience is a foundation that AI alone can’t build. To forge trust, organizations need to embed human creativity, context, customer identity, and quality data into every customer interaction. This year’s theme, “Build The Experience AI Can’t,” will empower leaders to shift from doing more with AI to creating better experiences powered by humans plus AI.
At the events, attendees will get access to Forrester’s latest research, frameworks, and insights to lead in this AI era and deliver better customer outcomes. Additionally, attendees can participate in special programs, including the invitation-only Executive Leadership Exchange, immersive experiences that simulate CX adventures, a celebration of Forrester’s Total Experience Honorees, and a new Future Leaders program designed for young professionals nominated by senior sponsors in their organizations.
The keynote sessions at this year’s CX event series include:
Maximize Your Total Experience With Forrester’s EX Index: Until now, proving how the employee experience (EX) drives brand and customer value relied largely on indirect evidence. This session will unveil Forrester’s expanded Total Experience Score, showing how changes in employee sentiment and engagement translate into stronger business outcomes, customer satisfaction, and growth.
Distrust In The Age Of AI: As AI-generated content, deepfakes, and automation blur reality, consumers are questioning everything. This keynote explores how CX, marketing, and digital leaders must rethink the experience their brand delivers to succeed in an era of pervasive distrust.
The Human Foundation Of The AI-Powered Enterprise: To create a roadmap for a total experience powered by humans and AI, enterprises need to ensure that their brand remains human in a world of AI sameness. Learn how to build a strong foundation for the future enterprise that AI can’t magically invent or repair.
“AI is upending every aspect of the customer experience in ways we couldn’t have imagined even just a few years ago,” said Keith Johnston, Forrester VP and group research director, “but as automated interactions become the norm and consumer trust gets even more fragmented, the brands that win will be the ones that employ AI to drive business value while accepting its shortcomings — the inability to replicate human qualities such as creativity, judgment, empathy, and connection. At this year’s CX events, leaders will learn how to use AI with purpose and build with intent.”

Grammy-Nominated Rock Band The Fray To Headline Forrester’s 2026 B2B Summit North AmericaFebruary 19, 2026 10:30 AM
Business Wire
B2B Summit is the must-attend event for marketing, sales, customer success, and product leaders to modernize their traditional go-to-market strategies
Forrester (Nasdaq: FORR) today announced that rock band The Fray will be this year’s headline performer at Forrester’s B2B Summit North America, taking place in Phoenix, April 26–29, 2026. This year’s B2B Summit North America theme, “GTM Singularity,” will enable B2B marketing, sales, customer, and product leaders — through Forrester’s research, frameworks, and guidance — to adapt to evolving buyer behaviors and modernize their go-to-market (GTM) approaches in an AI-driven era. With most buying decisions being shaped ahead of seller interactions, leaders must reset their GTM strategies to thrive through this period of unprecedented unpredictability.
The Fray is a multi-Platinum-selling band that rose to prominence in the early 2000s with a soul-searching alt-rock sound. Over the course of their career, The Fray have earned four Grammy Award nominations, three Billboard Music Awards, multiple Billboard Top 10 hits, and a devoted global fanbase. Their breakout single, “How to Save a Life,” is RIAA Diamond-certified and spent 58 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100. After a decade-long hiatus, The Fray is releasing a new album, A Light That Waits, in March.
“We look forward to having The Fray perform at this year’s B2B Summit North America,” said Tavar James, vice president of global events at Forrester. “Over the years, their music has served as an affirming and passionate soundtrack for listeners adapting to change while remaining resilient — all key themes for B2B leaders as they work to reinvent their GTM strategies in a world of AI. We are excited to have The Fray bring their dynamic live energy to our event.”
