Context is the key to finally delivering truly one-to-one digital experiences to consumers, but those personalized experiences that we all want (and deserve) come at a price…a bigger slice of our privacy. Is it worth it? Is the freaky factor too great? In our session we will review current groundbreaking uses of real-time and historical context and explore the responsibility and true potential of harnessing this data for the good of the consumer.
