Reading time: 3 minutes

The media and entertainment industry is constantly evolving and transforming. The changing environment poses opportunities and challenges from all sides, from the rise of retail media to the decline of traditional print. 

Perhaps you’ll find solutions to those challenges at this year’s Dreamforce. The event has proven to deliver results, with 87% of past attendees saying they learned something that helped accelerate business growth, and 86% solved business challenges with something they learned at Dreamforce. 

But with over 1,000 sessions, picking what is worth your time can sometimes feel as intimidating as working on your next complex media plan. Our Silverline Media & Entertainment team has attended numerous Dreamforce conferences and is here to guide you in selecting the best sessions. These are the top five sessions we recommend that you attend.

Tech & Media Keynote: The Future of Growth & Efficiency

If we could look into a crystal ball and foresee the future of media, we’d be looking at the themes of personalization and automation. This session offers an opportunity to hear straight from visionary leaders at AWS APN, NBCUniversal Media LLC, and Pivot about how products that enable personalization, automation, and the unlocking of data lead to increased CLTV, deeper audience engagement, and sustained revenue.

Location: Keynote Room (Level 3) – Moscone West, Level 3

Optimize Advertising Sales Operations with Automation

We have educated several media company clients, such as Samba TV and New York Magazine, about the importance of automation and how it is critical to saving both time and money. In this session, Jay Glogovsky, VP of Revenue Operations and Analytics at The New York Times, will share how media companies can accelerate advertising sales growth by leveraging automation and AI with Salesforce Media Cloud and CRM Analytics.

Media, entertainment, and gaming companies are all looking for business efficiencies that leverage a digital-first, data-driven approach to maximize agility and accelerate monetization.
