CMCX 2025: How marketeers make themselves irreplaceable

Content needs attitude, structure, and relevance—now more than ever.

For communication and marketing to truly contribute to value creation, more than just isolated measures are needed: it's about a sustainable content strategy, the right mindset, and a clear common direction. Transparent collaboration, the smart use of tools and technology, bold storytelling, and a genuine enthusiasm for innovation are indispensable today.

CMCX 2025 was the perfect place to take this idea further: learning about best practices, gaining new inspiration, and networking with other thought leaders from the industry.

We at Scompler were there as the lead partner and held three sessions demonstrating how modern communication management can be successful—strategically, efficiently, and with an impact on business.

Panic about AI? How marketers can overcome their fears—and make themselves irreplaceable

Björn Bröhl, CEO and Managing Director, Scompler Technologies GmbH

In times of AI tools such as ChatGPT, DALL-E or Midjourney, you as a communication professional are faced with the crucial question: Will your work soon be automated - or do you have the chance to rise strategically?

Now is the time to redefine your value as a strategic advisor to business leaders. Instead of being afraid of artificial intelligence, you should rethink your role with AI - as someone who links technology to business goals and aligns the content compass in a data-driven world.

In his keynote speech, Björn Bröhl shows that AI and strategy are not a contradiction in terms, but perhaps the most important combination for your future in marketing and communication.
