Rethinking your Business Model
08:35	 Chair’s Opening Remarks and Business Card Exchange
Bob Barr, Managing Director, Accenture Interactive
08:50	 OPENING KEYNOTE PRESENTATION: Digital Transformation: How to Transform your Time to Market and Customer Experience to
Compete in a Digital World
Accountable for developing a global digital strategy to drive digital growth for Electrocomponents plc (FTSE250, with traffic in excess of 100m visits a year and £1.3bn revenue with
over 60% online channel share), Vishal is driving the creation of a world class online experience; leading a global team of senior professionals from Paid Media, PPC and SEO across
agile development teams and Digital Product Managers to UX teams; and working strategically to drive digital transformation.
Since he started, Nicki has achieved a significant online transformation, realising £20m a year in incremental revenue, increasing online customer acquisition by 180k a year and
significantly improving the online customer experience. In less than 5 years, he has climbed all the way up to Head of Online Customer Experience on a global scale. His advice is: “If
you want to be successful in digital, understand your customer’s needs, be dynamic and innovative in your thinking, focus on value and execute incredibly well.”
Jointly, Vishal and Nicki will address:
•	 How does your existing organisational design create barriers to a holistic perception of the customer experience?
•	 Breaking down silos to improve tracking and measurement
•	 Getting an end-to-end view of the process
•	 Building customer journey strategy: what does it mean?
•	 Does the objective of a holistic customer experience presuppose the breaking down of internal silos?
•	 Tracking, creating leads and converting
•	 How can a truly omni-channel experience emerge from internal transparency and visibility?
•	 What does “taking the customer’s perspective” really mean?
•	 How can the customer experience approach drive internal operations and strategies around digital marketing?
•	 What are the ways to benchmark digital sales performance internally?
•	 How can KPIs and marketing milestones be monitored to get a single view of the digital performance across the organisation?
•	 What does data awareness mean in a world transitioning from offline to online?
•	 Is data infrastructure the issue? How do you assess if your data architecture is what you need to enable proper tracking of digital performance?
•	 Do you have the right capabilities – people and processes – in place to analyse the data and track digital performance?
•	 Is a Chief Data Officer necessary to drive a data-driven mind-set in the organisation?
•	 How can digital visibility drive more online and offline sales?
Vishal Chhatralia, VP Digital Operations, RS Components
Nicki Young, Global Head of Digital Product Management & Marketing, RS Components
09:10	 CASE STUDY: The B2B vs B2C Differentiator: How to Develop an Ecosystem that Goes Beyond the Traditional Sales Model to Create a
More Consultative Sale
One of the key fears of moving from an analogue culture to the digital culture is the argument that customers will lose the relationship they have with the brand through an account
manager or sales rep. Looking at the constitutive elements of such a relationship, the truth is that customers want products and services that fit their own needs. They want support
and acknowledgment of their idiosyncrasies throughout the buying process and also before and after. How can organisations develop digital mind-sets and processes that offer a
relationship and not just a transaction? In his case study, Jochen will talk through:
•	 What is the importance of solution-focused sales as opposed to traditional sales and how can it be developed at all levels of the organisation?
•	 What content can be shared internally and at which frequency? What is the best way to reinforce the importance of holistic solutions?
•	 How can innovative thinking be truly nurtured to support your digital value proposition?
•	 Knowing how and knowing when you are ready for change: what does it take?
Jochen Wiechen, CEO, Intershop
09:30	 CASE STUDY INTERACTIVE: How to Transform Marketing and Position it as a Strategic Function
Managing a total budget of $17m with 80 direct reports based in Europe, US and off-shore, and executing on an additional $20m on behalf of the business units across the
world, Valerie has created and currently leads Global Marketing Shared Services with in-scope Demand Centre and Sales Enablement for Xerox Corp as well as the Marketing &
Coms activities for Europe. She has transformed the marketing practice across Xerox with fully integrated marketing strategies and drives several global corporate cutting-edge
programmes; has developed various marketing strategies with associated tactics for different offerings (hardware, software & BPO services) through several channels (direct sales
force, resellers, social media, web) at European, Developing Countries and Global level; and has participated in the restructuring of several operating models to drive profitable
growth in both mature and emerging markets. Today she will detail:
•	 How to develop an integrated approach to influence, inform and educate your board and internal leaders about the power of digital
•	 What are the key components needed in your marketing team to make that change happen?
•	 How can sales and marketing be aligned?
Valerie Thomassin, SVP, Global Demand Centre & Sales Enablement and Corporate Marketing & Communications Europe, Xerox
10:15	 MORNING TEA AND COFFEE
10:55	 OXFORD STYLE DEBATE: Online Offerings Will Replace The Traditional B2B Offline Sales Model
Surveys all concur in asserting that digital marketing and sales leaders all struggle with internal reluctance to the adoption of the digital model. Fear is the first dominant reason. Is
it that traditional actors who have created their success stories in the analogue model feel like digital will render them obsolete? Has the question ever been asked at the strategic
level: what is digital here for? To destroy or support the traditional sales model? In this head-to-head debate, Stephane and Julian will put forward opposite arguments and challenge
each other on points of contention as they bid to win your vote. Who will convince you most?

December 2016
The Future of Marketplaces
11:40	 OXFORD STYLE DEBATE: Marketplaces will Complement the Existing Manufacturer/Distributor Relationship and Add Value to the Industry
In a world where manufacturers can sell directly to end customers via marketplaces, what happens to the long-standing and loyal relationship of the organisation with its traditional channel
partners? Is it possible for the new order to foster a new form of collaboration to the benefit of the end customer? With so many blurred lines between the concept of client, competitor and
partner, will the new landscape be defined by better access to data by all? James and Kilian sit on opposite sides of the fence and battle it out to deliver the winning argument.
FOR: Kilian Veer, Former Head of Digital Strategy, QIAGEN
•	 Through marketplaces, manufacturers can access a wider breadth of customers
•	 Manufacturers can also access brand new customers in new locales rather than through their legacy distributors
•	 Marketplaces provide the manufacturers with better control of how their brand is represented online
•	 Marketplaces allow greater access to customer data than distributors
AGAINST: James Simpson, eCommerce & Digital Marketing Leader (West Europe), 3M
•	 Manufacturers cannot move into new opportunities where a well-established, long-service relationship exists with distributors
•	 Marketplaces allow too much transparency between products which causes manufacturers to lose control of their pricing strategies
•	 Marketplaces do not enable consultative selling
•	 Marketplaces encourage lowest price buying whereby customers only focus on the cheapest products rather than the right purchase
MODERATOR: Adrien Nussenbaum, Co-Founder, Mirakl
12:25	 CASE STUDY: How to Build your Own Marketplace to Support Price Transparency whilst Protecting your Manufacturer/Distributor Relationship
Head-hunted from Amazon to take ownership of the ‘Online’ 3-year strategy and roadmap, Alex is P&L responsible for all of ACCO’s European online sales with pure-play ‘etailers’
including Amazon EU (UK, DE, FR, IT, ES) and is lead for the Global Amazon Working Group. In his presentation he will detail:
•	 What is the foreseeable evolution of competitive marketplaces in Europe and on a global scale?
•	 How can an internal marketplace safeguard relationships with distributors while allowing direct touch points with your end customers?
•	 What are the key elements to building an internal marketplace?
•	 Would an internal marketplace provide more control over pricing strategy?
•	 Can such a platform allow the capture of relevant customer data by manufacturers?

Since he started, Nicki has achieved a significant online transformation, realising £20m a year in incremental revenue, increasing online customer acquisition by 180k a year and significantly improving the online customer experience. In less than 5 years, he has climbed all the way up to Head of Online Customer Experience on a global scale. His advice is: “If you want to be successful in digital, understand your customer’s needs, be dynamic and innovative in your thinking, focus on value and execute incredibly well.” Jointly, Vishal and Nicki will address: • How does your existing organisational design create barriers to a holistic perception of the customer experience? • Breaking down silos to improve tracking and measurement • Getting an end-to-end view of the process • Building customer journey strategy: what does it mean? • Does the objective of a holistic customer experience presuppose the breaking down of internal silos? • Tracking, creating leads and converting • How can a truly omni-channel experience emerge from internal transparency and visibility? • What does “taking the customer’s perspective” really mean? • How can the customer experience approach drive internal operations and strategies around digital marketing? • What are the ways to benchmark digital sales performance internally? • How can KPIs and marketing milestones be monitored to get a single view of the digital performance across the organisation? • What does data awareness mean in a world transitioning from offline to online? • Is data infrastructure the issue? How do you assess if your data architecture is what you need to enable proper tracking of digital performance? • Do you have the right capabilities – people and processes – in place to analyse the data and track digital performance? • Is a Chief Data Officer necessary to drive a data-driven mind-set in the organisation? • How can digital visibility drive more online and offline sales? Vishal Chhatralia, VP Digital Operations, RS Components Nicki Young, Global Head of Digital Product Management & Marketing, RS Components 09:10 CASE STUDY: The B2B vs B2C Differentiator: How to Develop an Ecosystem that Goes Beyond the Traditional Sales Model to Create a More Consultative Sale One of the key fears of moving from an analogue culture to the digital culture is the argument that customers will lose the relationship they have with the brand through an account manager or sales rep. Looking at the constitutive elements of such a relationship, the truth is that customers want products and services that fit their own needs. They want support and acknowledgment of their idiosyncrasies throughout the buying process and also before and after.

In this head-to-head debate, Stephane and Julian will put forward opposite arguments and challenge each other on points of contention as they bid to win your vote. Who will convince you most? FOR: Julian Macey, Director eBusiness, VWR • The digital proposition creates new leads for sales, offline and online • The digital proposition allows you to reach a wider customer base and explore new geos • It is impossible to convert business without a previous touch point - today’s customer prefers to assess and make choices online AGAINST: Stephane Lafarge, Director, Western Europe, Herman Miller • Digital sales are a threat to human capital • Our customers are used to analogue and enjoy the personal touch that comes with their own sales representative or account manager • There is no proven value that truly links the digital proposition to increased revenues MODERATOR: Bob Barr, Managing Director, Accenture Interactive
