    Knowing your customer starts with knowing your data, but that’s difficult to do when the right contextual data is disparate and inaccessible. Join Twilio to learn about trends shaping customer data and how to structure and build on your tech stack to increase customer engagement. This session explores how Twilio and AWS offerings—including Amazon Redshift, Amazon S3, Amazon Personalize, and Amazon SageMaker—can help you connect siloed data across systems. See developer tools in action and hear how Twilio and AWS customers are using contextual data and channels, combined with the power of generative and predictive AI, to build personalization at scale. This presentation is brought to you by Twilio, an AWS Partner.
