Together, they reveal how your business can better use first-party data, AI, and smarter checkout experiences to improve customer trust and sell more. Avi explains how optimizing logistics and personalization inside checkout unlocks profit revenue, while Mina shares how Mattel builds agile, data-driven teams and connects directly with its global community of customers and collectors. The end result? A top-to-bottom analysis of your entire customer journey … to scale faster.
