Quote:
“AI is changing both how content is consumed and how it is discovered,” said Mandy Mladenoff, President of Matter. “It’s increasingly important for organizations to understand how to stand out and be noticed at a time when 80% of consumers rely on “zero click” results from AI-generated search summaries. Today, meaningful visibility means making your content crawlable, semantically rich, and structurally organized so that AI tools and overviews can parse it for direct answers - not just driving traffic. At the same time, brands need to lean harder into authority-leveraging social proof, third-party reviews, deep analysis and earned media - so when AI overviews draw from multiple sources, your voice is among those recommended. This Summit will give brands practical steps to structure content for AI, amplify brand authority through earned media and social proof, and maintain the originality and authenticity that build industry trust and thought leadership.”
