Overview
Oracle CloudWorld 2023 was held at the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas in September. 18,000+ Oracle clients, partners & team members attended sessions covering CX Marketing, Sales, Service and hardware.
For 20+ years organisations have strived for Sales & Marketing Alignment.
Striech suggests it’s now time to squarely aim our efforts at Sales & marketing Unification
Was marketing and sales alignment ever going to bring sales and marketing together? By its very definition, it implies running in parallel to one another.
I’ve been in and around these two teams for 20+ years and running in parallel was always a lofty goal and in some cases, we came close.
Unification is an entirely new ball game. It’s about being made into a whole, one body. When Streich made these comments during this webinar, my initial thought was “Perhaps we are finally in a state, from a technology point of view where we have systems and processes that could actually support the idea of unification.”
More on this to come…
If you couldn’t make it to Las Vegas, you can access highlights via Oracle CloudWorld On Air
If you have a Topliners user account, it’s the same login and password to access Oracle CloudWorld On Air. It’s referred to as your Oracle ID.
We’ve looked through the many replays and have put together a list of replays we believe Eloqua users will find interesting:

We started the conversation with Stephen giving us an idea of the size of Cloud World, the various hot topics and other events aligned with Cloud World.
The Annual Markies Awards Dinner was hosted at Cloud World, to “recognize customers that have gone above and beyond to deliver outstanding experiences that set new and innovative standards.”*
