Brand Strategy in the Age of AI
2026-05-20 14:00 - 15:00
Brand Strategy in the Age of AI: Why Clarity is the New Battleground
Date: May 20, 2026Time: 2 PM ESTLocation: Live WebinarDuration: Approximately 1 hourCost: Free to attend
The APC-NYC presents Live from the Brand Lab, featuring a discussion with strategist Alan Brew.
AI is rapidly reshaping how brands are discovered, interpreted, and trusted. What once depended on visibility and human-directed search now operates within automated systems that influence what is seen and how brands are understood.
In this timely conversation, Alan Brew explores how brand strategy is evolving in the age of AI and why clarity is becoming the defining factor in brand performance.
“Like a software update no one agreed to install, AI has quietly and profoundly rewritten the rules of brand strategy. Brands that once competed for attention now operate inside automated systems that decide what’s seen and how it’s interpreted. In this new reality, clarity has replaced visibility as the true threshold of brand power and performance.”
What You’ll Learn

How AI is changing brand visibility and perception
Why clarity is becoming a competitive advantage
What this shift means for creative and production professionals
How to adapt your approach in an AI-driven landscape

Designed for professionals across print, digital, and emerging media, this session will help attendees stay informed and ahead of industry shifts.
You can register for the webinar here: https://apc212.app.neoncrm.com/nx/portal/neonevents/events?path=%2Fportal%2Fevents%2F44808Registration is free, but space is limited.
