What will we discuss?

Conversational AI is a powerful tool that can help you improve your customer satisfaction and drive revenue growth. It can help you free up your customer service agents to focus on more complex issues, leading to faster resolution times, improved accuracy, and a more personalized customer experience.

Join us for a thought-provoking event where we bring together industry leaders, researchers, and experts, to explore how Conversational AI can deliver personalised and contextually relevant interactions that chatbots cannot.

Delegates will gain insights into case studies, best practices, and innovative approaches for scaling conversational AI and leveraging Vonage APIs. They will also acquire actionable strategies to harness the full potential of conversational AI and Vonage APIs, empowering their organizations to achieve transformative business outcomes.

    Questions our invited guests often ask us

    General Conference

    Launched in 2019, Common Sense Conferences attract executive thought leaders from around the globe for conversation with peers and industry experts to promote innovation and growth. All Common Sense events share a “Less Presentation, More Conversation” theme because the last thing anyone needs is more heavy-handed sales pitches masquerading as “thought leadership”.

    Common Sense Conferences are produced by BuyerForesight, a 100-person marketing services company with offices in the US, India, Singapore, Australia, the United Arab Emirates, and the Netherlands.

    We produce executive thought leadership events worldwide.

    We emphasize conversation over presentation. We carefully vet every prospective participant to ensure they will both contribute and get value from each event.

    We have offices in Singapore, Kolkata, Bangalore, Sydney, Dubai, Amsterdam, and Duluth, Minnesota.

    Attend to learn and network with industry experts and executive peers.

    For half-day conferences, expect 30-35 participants and 5-6 sponsors.

    For full-day conferences, expect 55-60 participants and 8-10 sponsors.

    There are no current plans to invite media to upcoming conferences.

    Sessions will be recorded.

    Sessions will not be broadcast or made available for public viewing.

    Yes.

    Our business model relies on our participants being decision makers on behalf of their company, with control of a budget, buying authority, need for solutions and a timeline for purchase of those solutions within 12 months.

    Logistics

    Qualified participants pay nothing to attend.

    Common Sense Conferences will arrange and pay for air travel, hotel, and meals during the event for all qualified participants. Meals outside of the conference are not included. For some events we may offer either a car service or paid parking at the venue, but in general we expect participants to cover those costs for themselves.

    You’ll need to complete a qualification form.

    You can register here

    No. However, we request that you make a serious effort to find a colleague in your organization with similar qualifications to participate instead of you or take a meeting with at least 3 of our sponsors.

    You should plan to arrive in time to join us for cocktails (multi-day conferences), or during the designated registration time prior to sessions beginning (1-day or half-day conferences).

    No. Our only requirement is that you participate in the full program from the welcome cocktail reception to the final meal on the last day.

    Airfare and hotel fees are covered. We also provide food & beverages at designated times and locations at the hotel during the conference.

    Please make your own arrangements to travel to and from the airport by taxi or rideshare.

    Yes, you may stay at the venue for multi-day events.

    Sessions

    The format includes several session types from a full-group keynote address to small conversational breakout sessions and 1:1 meetings. The majority of our activities are designed to foster small-group conversations among participants and our industry experts.

    A panel discussion is 3-5 experts discussing a series of questions posed by a moderator. Participants may ask and respond as well.

    Typically 50% or more of participants attend each session, depending on the conference agenda and the number of coinciding sessions.

    As many as you like.

    Yes, though some sessions may fill up; in this case, you’ll need to choose a different session.

    Yes, we strongly encourage your topic suggestions.

    Participants

    If you are a decision maker with control of a budget, buying authority, need for solutions, and a timeline for purchase of those solutions within 12 months, you will qualify. You may also qualify if you are a primary purchase influencer.

    You are expected to attend and participate in sessions, join us for meals and stay through the full program. You are not required to meet with any of our sponsors, though of course, we hope you’ll want to.

    We believe our participants have a lot of valuable information to share, so we encourage all participants to actively ask and answer questions during our sessions. We also ask some participants to consider serving on a panel.

    You aren’t required to be a “speaker” and lead a session; however, all participants should come prepared to share their expertise or ask good questions of their peers.

    If you are serving on a panel or delivering an address, we’ll introduce you to others you’ll be presenting with and set up prep calls for you. We do not use PowerPoint presentations in our breakout sessions, so a simple outline of what you intend to discuss is enough. Otherwise, all you need to do is read through the agenda and decide which sessions you’d like to participate in.

    Yes, we’d like a description of what you intend to cover, but bullet points are fine.

    Yes.

    Other participants are executives in medium to large enterprises fitting the target demographics of the conference.

    Sponsors

    Sponsors are leading technology vendors that can address the pain points of participants.

    No.

    Yes, we will share the information you provide to us with sponsors.
