Zendesk Showcase Returns to New York on May 22

Executives from Betterment, Hello Alfred, Vimeo, Atlassian and more join Zendesk for a one-day customer experience event

On May 22, 2019, Zendesk, Inc. ZEN is hosting the Zendesk Showcase global event series in New York to bring together customer experience, IT, and support leaders for conversations on the evolving CX landscape and creating the best experiences for both employees and customers.

The Zendesk Customer Experience Trends Report found that 84 percent of customers say customer service is important when considering a purchase. These customer expectations are changing rapidly — what is extraordinary today becomes ordinary tomorrow. At Zendesk Showcase, CEO Mikkel Svane will explain how to break free from the old ways of doing things in order to help companies keep up with modern customer expectations.

In addition to product launches, and new features for customers, this year's speaker lineup features local business leaders, entrepreneurs and experts from innovative brands that prioritize service, including:

• Jon Stein, CEO, Betterment
• Marcela Sapone, CEO and Co-Founder, Hello Alfred
• Colin Crowley, VP, Customer Experience, Freshly
• Cameron Dunn, Head of Community Operations, Vimeo
• Allyse Brown, Head of Product, Statuspage, Atlassian

Other speakers from CCW Digital, Spartan Race, Rise Logistics and Staples will present on ways to keep delivering the experiences that customers want. Additionally, concert pianist Jade Simmons will talk about leading the charge for diversification of the workplace with a powerfully positive approach. She will show attendees how to eschew guilt and obligation in favor of curiosity and authentic connectivity through music and conversation.
