BCAMA’s Lunch & Learn Series: How AI Is Changing Search, Discovery and Brand Visibility 

BCAMA invites you to join us for the first event in our Lunch & Learn series. Our interactive Lunch & Learn sessions provide an opportunity to gain insights from a subject matter expert, ask questions, and network with like-minded marketers. 

Details: 

AI is changing how people search, discover, and choose brands, and it’s already impacting what gets seen (and what doesn’t).

This session is for marketers who are responsible for making sure their brands are found online, whether through websites, social channels, content or communications. It is also for anyone interested in how search is changing and what that means for their work. We will explain how search is moving beyond traditional SEO, show what AI-driven discovery looks like, and share ways to adjust your strategy so your brand remains visible and relevant. Attendees will learn how SEO and content expertise translates into an advantage in an AI-driven search and discoverability landscape.

You’ll leave with:

  • A clear understanding of how search and discovery are changing (and what actually matters now)
  • A simple framework for thinking about SEO in an AI-driven world
  • Practical actions you can apply to your website, content and search strategies, as well as your reporting, to improve discoverability
  • Ideas you can apply immediately to support performance

This is designed to be an interactive session, so bring your questions!

Venue

We’ll be hosting the event at UBC Robson Square in Classrooms 150/180 located on the downstairs classroom level.
