Keynote - Three Dimensional Interactive Demos: How Personalization, Context, and Explorative Experience combine to meet the needs of today's sophisticated self-directed buyers
Research shows that buyers are hungry for product demostration content that is “rich in technical detail and cannot be easily faked”.

The challenge is that buyers today will not wade through automated demo content that is irrelevant to their unique role or interests, placed out of context, or locked in a sequence that doesn’t allow them the freedom to choose. In this session, we’ll explore three key buyer needs and how to meet them in a way that enables buyers to move more quickly through the buying process.
