Data is never going to be perfect, so we have asked our presenters to share real pragmatic stories on how they got started and their progress to date. What were some of the challenges, roadblocks, and considerations along the way, how did they choose what to focus on first, and what do their roadmaps and end goals look like?
These are your peers tackling challenges that you can relate to and learn from. Throughout the day, there’ll be examples from different organisations in different industries and with different budgets all trying to connect the data dots to deliver better customer experiences.
More speakers & topics to be announced soon. Watch this space!

National Manager – Digital Marketing & Experience | Hato Hone St John Aotearoa New Zealand
Just start: The long road to whole-of-life engagement
Hato Hone St John has been saving lives for over 130 years in communities across the motu, but as one of Aotearoa New Zealand's largest not-for-profits (and most trusted brands), its ability to respond to its customers’ changing digital behaviours and expectations hasn’t kept up with the organisation’s critical, life-saving work, sparking a transformation programme unlike anything the organisation has tackled before.
In this session hear about Hato Hone’s St John’s experiences on their transformation journey, and how they’re changing a complex organisation’s way of thinking about – and engaging with – their customers, donors, patients, and people.
Adi has worked in digital marketing and ecommerce-related roles for twenty years, across banking, retail, government and the not-for-profit sector.
Adi's core role at Hato Hone St John is focused on digital marketing and customer experience, driving online engagement, acquisition and revenue for one of New Zealand's most trusted brands.
Adi is also a business owner of Hato Hone St John's digital transformation programme, seeking to improve how they engage with their donors, customers, patients and people in an increasingly challenging digital environment.

Digital Ecosystem Project Lead | Te Pūkenga
CDP Case Study: The grand amalgamation of Te Pūkenga’s marketing data
If you think your organisation has been struggling with data silos, wait until you see this!
Te Pūkenga is NZ’s newest and largest education provider, newly merged from 24 separate polytechnics and industry training organisations that have been competing with each other for decades. So how would a new central marketing function go about building a single customer view of prospective learners engaging across this vast but heavily siloed network? 24 different websites, all with their own structures and conversion paths, hundreds of different lead and enquiry touch points, thousands of study programmes, all classified differently, dozens of different technology platforms and technical teams, the list goes on. This is a first party customer data challenge on a truly daunting scale.
So meet the team tackling these challenges via New Zealand’s biggest ever Customer Data Platform (CDP) implementation project. This presentation is an honest work-in-progress update at the half way point of their two year journey towards centralised marketing audiences, insights and use cases. Interested in CDPs? This story’s for you!
I am a marketer based in Ōtepoti, New Zealand. I love helping brands develop their unique identity and create a go-to market strategy that converts. I enjoy driving digital strategies although my 15 years’ experience marketing has been managing brands across on-and-offline channels. However, digital is where I've naturally landed as I love the mix of creative and tech. And of course the epic results you can achieve!
Passionate or obsessed? However you describe me, I freaking love marketing. I'm constantly geeking out on marketing stuff - dissecting brands, mulling over messaging and celebrating epic micro-copy. And now you can add first-party data to the list! In my role with Te Pūkenga I’m out to make a difference in Aotearoa. I believe the approach we have taken to partner with Tealium will make this possible, through the personalised and relevant experience we’ll be able to offer our diverse audiences.

Mitre 10’s rapid eCommerce transformation journey
Mitre 10’s brand is “With You All the Way” – but to deliver on this promise, a significant evolution was required to establish the right capabilities and partners.

He is a passionate disrupter that is constantly pushing the boundaries and challenging the status quo to drive the eCommerce business forward.

Data is meaningless without a customer-centric consciousness. Smarter Data Meets CX 2022 indeed verified and reinforced this. Speakers and presentations were all on target - thanks MA for another great event.
The mix of presenters and insights was incredible. There's something in there for everyone. If you didn't come away from SD Meets CX 2022 with an actionable insight, you weren't paying attention.
