Whether you're just starting your journey or considering taking the leap, this session will share actionable insights and practical strategies to help you unlock growth opportunities.
This session explores one of the core superpowers of product marketing: building alignment and driving impact while balancing authority, influence, and competing expectations. Join seasoned Product Marketing leaders as they share strategies for navigating the complex dynamics across product, sales, communications, and executives.
As the connective tissue between teams, Product Marketing plays a unique role in managing priorities that often conflict. With lean resources, technical buyers, extended sales cycles, and high-stakes launches, the ability to influence outcomes isn’t just valuable, it’s essential. Misalignment can delay innovation and create financial impact for both the business and its customers.
Most PMMs hone these skills through experience, learning, adapting, and evolving along the way. This panel brings those lessons to life with actionable playbooks that help you strengthen influence, build credibility, and accelerate results.
At $15B, the global cyber insurance market is still in its infancy, but experts project it'll more than double by 2030, and the influence exerted by the insurance ecosystem is bound to grow alongside. Insurance is frequently assessing what is 'reasonable security' and which security controls and technologies are must-haves. So how do you position your company to benefit from underwriting mandates, broker referrals, and legal expertise?
This panel leverages experts with decades of experience across the entire cyber insurance ecosystem to answer that question and much more. Listen and engage with the CRO/CMO duo that helped build the largest incident response business in the world, thanks to strong relationships with insurers and law firms, a cyber insurance broker that’s actively shaping applicants into “good risk”, and an underwriter responsible for assessing and managing cyber risk for a huge portfolio of companies.

Most teams overthink short-form video and either never ship or way overproduce into something even they wouldn’t consume. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll turn your niche expertise into a scroll-stopping, 30–90s video, and if you want, you can actually hit publish before you walk out of the room.
We’ll use a simple, repeatable system:
You’ll learn how to pick a topic your buyers care about, draft a conversational hook, record with your phone (no studio needed), cut ruthlessly, add captions, and post to your platform of choice (Reels, TikTok, or YouTube Shorts).
Expect live demos, examples of good and bad, and immediate feedback. You’ll leave with your first video live, a 7-day “ship daily” plan, and the confidence to create consistently, without sounding salesy or spending hours in an editor.
I will not force you to participate, but if you want to make a video while here, have your phone ready to do so. I record in TikTok, but also have recorded in Instagram Edits or CapCut.
Bring a smartphone with your preferred app installed - perfection not required.
Marketing leaders often inherit fractured alignment with executive stakeholders, leading to missed pipeline goals, attribution battles, and frustrated CEOs. In this interactive workshop, attendees will walk through a proven alignment diagnostic framework developed by Charles Gold, CMO of ThreatConnect, to identify and fix gaps with the CEO, CRO, market strategy, and internal resources.
Attendees will learn how to assess misalignments, structure a joint GTM scorecard, and adopt a shared accountability model across the leadership team. The workshop will use real-world examples, templates, and tactical tools to drive a discussion among CMOs. Attendees will share insights, learn from their peers, and walk away with actionable templates to improve alignment in their organizations.
