    • Raise brand recognition among utility executives and decision-makers
    • Demonstrate real-world outcomes from their customer engagement solutions
    • Accelerate pipeline through direct, commercially meaningful conversations

    • Impactful thought leadership: consistently high session attendance and follow-up interest
    • Deal acceleration: multiple opportunities progressed more quickly following face-to-face discussions
