Christopher S. Penn bridges the gap between marketing and technology. What he shares on social media and writes about on his blog helps you understand marketing and technology better. He’s a better coder than most marketers, and a better marketer than most coders. By having one foot in both worlds, he finds solutions that work in one place and brings them to the other – including you.
He speaks publicly about digital marketing, marketing technology, and machine learning/artificial intelligence. He’s the co-founder of Brain+Trust Insights, a data analytics company focused on helping you make more money with your data, a co-founder of PodCamp with Chris Brogan, and co-host of the Marketing Over Coffee podcast with John Wall.
Follow Christopher on Twitter at @cspenn. He can also be found on LinkedIn and the Marketing Over Coffee group.
You’ll Learn:
- Christopher’s career evolution from a pure technology background to marketing technology or MarTech.
- Why Christopher believes there’s a lot wrong with current Influencer Marketing.

- Why Facebook won’t win the fight against #FakeNews
- Humans must make sure historical bias doesn’t affect machine learning by being model checkers.
3 Key Points:
- NO ONE is safe from the coming AI revolution!
- You must remain flexible and willing to adapt quickly because the industry changes so rapidly.
- You can’t be left-brained or right-brained anymore. You need both analytical and creative skills.
