Adobe Summit kicked off on April 27th with their opening

executives and global business leaders share how exceptional,
personalized customer experiences are the key to long-term
success and business growth.
Shantanu Narayen, Chairman, President, CEO at Adobe,
kicked off the keynote reflecting on the past year. “We’ve gone
from a world with digital to a digital first world, and there’s no
going back,” said Shantanu. In the past year, ecommerce
spend was $844 billion, but Adobe predicts 2022 will be the
first trillion dollar year in ecommerce.

6/1/2021 2021 Adobe Summit Keynote and Sneaks Recap - Blue Acorn iCi
Becoming a digital business is an ongoing journey and
requires combining art and science to drive effective
marketing strategies. As businesses re-architect around the
customer, CMOs and CIOs are working together to implement
new technology, activate the technology, and create new
processes to scale the impact.
The Path Forward
Anil Chakravarthy, EVP, GM Digital Experience Business at
Adobe, recognized that while the path forward is still being
shaped, we know it won’t be what it looked like a year or two
ago. Every business has had to rapidly pivot to digital
channels as customers have come to expect engaging,
personalized experiences in real-time.
“Customer personalization done right drives business
growth.”
Anil Chakravarthy, EVP, GM Digital Experience Business at Adobe
As we enter a cookieless world, the need for first-party data
has never been more important, but Anil noted that the award
is a true digital transformation of your business. By combining
content, data, AI, and machine learning, marketers can
connect every customer experience. Anil announced numerous
innovations aimed to help brands and retailers optimize their
digital customer experiences and marketing campaigns:
Adobe Experience Platform: Adobe is making a few
improvements to Adobe Experience Platform, including
Collection Enterprise (ties experience events to customer
profiles), Segment Match (allows multiple companies to
form partnerships and build rich customer profiles), and
real-time CDP for B2B.

Adobe Journey Optimizer: Allows companies to manage
the end-to-end customer journey, from large batch
campaigns to one-on-one customer engagements.
Adobe Commerce: Adobe is adding new features like
intelligent visual recommendations, intelligent live search,
additional commerce support for B2B, and a decoupled
experience layer from backend commerce operations.
Following Anil’s announcements, Shantanu introduced a series
of global business leaders to discuss their journeys through
digital transformation, leadership, and customer experience.
Preparing for the Unexpected
When Pfizer CEO, Albert Bourla, first heard about COVID-19,
his first concern was for his over 90,000 workers, and his
second concern was how the business would evolve. “Luck
never comes to the unprepared,” said Albert. Fortunately for
Pfizer, they began their digital transformation in 2019, well
before the pandemic. By improving their technology and
processes, and adding new skillsets like a Chief Digital Officer,
the company was able to commit to producing three billion
COVID vaccines.
“You can only transform a company by changing the culture
of the company.”
Albert Bourla, CEO at Pfizer

From Tennis Pro to Venture Capitalist
When Serena Williams found out that less than 2% of venture
capital goes towards women and even less going to women of
color, she knew she had to change it. Off the court, she’s
become a venture capitalist, investing in minority and women
owned businesses, and founded her own fashion company.
“Every experience I have creates a better businesswoman.
Whether it’s good or bad. It creates a better me.”

Adobe and FedEx Partner to Unlock
Ecommerce Innovation
Adobe and FedEx announced their new multi-year partnership,
starting with the integration of ShopRunner with Adobe
Commerce. Anticipated benefits for brands and retailers
include two-day shipping, easier returns process, increased
customer loyalty, and seamless checkout experiences. But one
of the most valuable perks of the partnership for Adobe
merchants is access to post-purchase logistics intelligence.

Since 2019, FedEx has invested in both their physical and
digital capabilities. They grew their shipping network and
expanded their services to include delivery inside homes, all
while investing in new technology to enhance the digital
experience.

Adobe Sneaks
Each year at Summit, Adobe presents a series of new projects
that teams are working on, but only 60% of what they show
makes it into product. Here are the seven Sneaks finalists:
1. Daily Shuffle: Daily Shuffle is an AI assistant in
Workfront that allows users to “re-route” their daily
schedule when work and personal commitments collide.
When a user chooses to re-route their schedule, Daily
Shuffle re-assigns meetings based on designated
substitutes and surfaces priorities.
2. Savvy Search: Savvy Search is an actionable search bar
that helps users find what they need to take certain
actions, such as questions regarding a campaign in Adobe
Experience Cloud, how to run an A/B test, and pending
requests from team members.
3. Live Wired: By combining Firefly and Live Wired,
designers and developers can easily collaborate to create
custom apps. Live Wired turns Adobe XD into a drag and
drop interface that links to Adobe apps.

4. Catchy Content: Catchy Content uses AI to help digital
marketers measure characteristics and attributes of
content that engage audiences, then optimizes and
personalizes the content based on that insight.
5. Account Ace: Account Ace, ideal for B2B companies, uses
Account AI and Buying Circles to calculate an account’s
MQL score, analyze the account’s activities, and identify
key personas for the account and who’s missing.
6. Segment Tuner: Segment Tuner uses AI to identify data
quality issues in segments, such as invalid emails and
missing attributes. Segment Tuner also helps brands
identify connections between data sets and suggestions
for new customer attributes that will extend their reach.
7. Dimension Builder: Dimension Builder makes it easy for
users to clean report insights that are typically prone to
human error. Using Sensei, Dimension Builder can comb
through billions of cross-channel data points, allowing
users to create rules that address problems in a few
seconds.

optimize the customer experience. Blue Acorn iCi brought the
showroom experience online with an intuitive and refreshed
design. The new design highlights educational content that
guides customers through the learning and customizing
process, including videos, detailed product information, and
UGC.
Lovesac initially used three different tools to capture customer
reviews, present UGC across their DTC and social channels,
and manage their “Refer a Friend” program. Blue Acorn iCi
integrated Yotpo to consolidate all three tools into a single
solution. With Yotpo, Lovesac can collect quality content,
inspire shoppers with customer creations, and drive brand
loyalty through referrals.

Home Network Pioneer eero and Digital Agency Blue Acorn iCi
Honored With Signifyd FLOW Award for Excellence in Commerce

July 22, 2019 09:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Signifyd announced today that it has honored home networking pioneer eero with
its FLOW award for customer experience and digital agency Blue Acorn iCi with its first FLOW partnership award for the
two companies’ contributions to creating outstanding experiences for digital consumers.
eero led the world in solving a maddening problem for consumers living in a multi-device, digitally dependent world —
spotty WiFi coverage at home. The company built robust and elegant hardware and paired it with sophisticated software
supported by machine learning. The result is superior in-home networks no matter where a consumer decides to work,
play or enjoy streaming entertainment.
The company exhibited true leadership in the in-home mesh network marketplace and inspired many larger companies to
follow suit. It doubled-down on its innovation by expanding its devices and software into network security, parental controls
and ad blocking.
Its excellence did not go unnoticed and earlier this year, Amazon acquired eero as another piece in its line of smart-home
products.
“eero’s technology is truly exceptional,” said Signifyd Senior Vice President of Marketing Indy Guha in announcing the
FLOW award. “But what is even more exceptional is the way the eero team kept its customers at the center of everything it
did to design, build and market that technology to consumers who were eager to have it.”
Case 5:21-cv-00251-BO Document 1-5 Filed 06/10/21 Page 21 of 30
eero’s customer obsession comes through in everything the home networking company does. Its network extension
systems are managed through a mobile app and require no tinkering to connect existing networks to the mesh network
eero creates.
The company’s compassion for its customers is evident in the design of its routers and beacons — elegant white devices
with curved lines and slim profiles. That the devices are objects consumers are proud to display in their homes is no
accident.
“We are laser-focused on our mission to make the technologies in your home just work,” eero Business Operations
Manager Justin Graham said. “That starts with designing something aesthetically beautiful and extends to making the
customer experience simple so your WiFi disappears into the fabric of your home. That customer focus is something that
we also really cherish at eero.”
Blue Acorn iCi is a leading digital agency that creates unforgettable digital customer experiences driven by data and
powerful content. Blue Acorn iCi has elevated countless brands to the top of their categories through digital transformation.
Their clients, which include Peter Thomas Roth, Campbell’s, Le Creuset, Panera Bread, Casper and Gerber, see on
average a 5X return on investment.
“Ecommerce is the ultimate team sport,” Guha said in announcing the award for Signifyd partner Blue Acorn iCi. “For an
online retailer, having a team that genuinely understands design, technology and data, and how that shapes the complete
customer experience — from click to home — can’t be overstated. Blue Acorn iCi is a master of bringing that reality to life
on its clients’ sites.”
In an era where customers demand more from their online experiences, the brands that thrive are the ones that align
themselves with the right technology partners for strategic guidance and to drive initiatives.
Blue Acorn iCi accelerates their clients through every stage of digital maturity. They are one of the few digital agencies that
offer full commerce services, including site operations, performance marketing, payments and security, customer care and
fulfillment. Their complete service offerings span across strategic initiatives, platform implementation and custom
integrations and advanced analytics and optimization.
Blue Acorn iCi can provide everything a brand needs to build, maintain and optimize an ecommerce site, or just what it
needs to make impactful improvements. By aligning the right people, processes and platforms, Blue Acorn iCi expands
their clients’ reach, accelerates their sales and services their customers.
“Customers vote with their wallets, and those wallets dictate which brands succeed at creating personalized, seamless
experiences across every touchpoint,” says Kevin Eichelberger, Co-CEO of Blue Acorn iCi. “Everything we do is rooted in
data and analytics, which means continual testing and optimization and the know-how to create personalized, memorable
experiences at scale.”
Guha presented the awards Thursday night at Signifyd’s FLOW San Francisco, an evening of conversation and learning at
The Battery, where leaders representing some of retail’s most creative and successful enterprises gathered to compare
notes and share their experiences in ecommerce.

In a statement, Magento said that Le Creuset set an industry
standard of excellence for the site, launched in October of last
year. According to Magento, the site balances compelling
content and a crisp design with a user experience carefully
tailored to reduce bounce rates, all while maximizing sales
and average order value. The new site continues to drive
record revenue for Le Creuset, and it is now rolling out the
website in more than 29 countries.
“The winners of the 2016 Imagine Excellence Awards embody
the relentless commitment of our clients and partners taking
commerce to the next level,” said Mark Lavelle, CEO of
Magento Commerce. “From the omnichannel and technology
innovators to the explorers carving out new ways of doing
business, it is because of the continued innovation of our
community that Magento is at the forefront of global
commerce. On behalf of everyone at Magento Commerce,
congratulations to all the finalists and winners of the 2016
Excellence Awards.”
Last month Le Creuset was also honored as the recipient for
best website during the Spark! Awards.
