As part of IE Experience Day Manila, we are pleased to invite IE alumni to an exclusive masterclass focused on strategic brand building in today’s competitive environment: Digital Marketing in Practice: Data, AI, and the Customer Journey by Professor Dushinka Karani (Vice Dean, MarCom & Talent Development & HR, IE Business School).
This masterclass explores how modern brands move from strategic positioning to executional excellence in a world of fragmented touchpoints, algorithm-driven visibility, and non-linear customer journeys. The session examines how leading companies such as Hermès, Nike, Netflix, Starbucks, and The New York Times integrate unified customer data, AI-driven personalization, and omnichannel orchestration to optimize the entire customer experience rather than isolated campaigns.

-
Rethinking the traditional marketing funnel in a non-linear journey

-
This masterclass offers both strategic perspective and practical insight — equipping leaders to navigate digital marketing with rigor, coherence, and long-term value creation.
-

-
Driving sustainable growth in an increasingly complex digital ecosystem
-

-

This masterclass offers both strategic perspective and practical insight — equipping leaders to navigate digital marketing with rigor, coherence, and long-term value creation.
