Tarek Nseir, Head of Digital Engagement, EMEA, at EPAM, on Using Data to Reach the CX Holy Grail

The difference between a Customer Experience (CX) that simply functions and one that inspires is the effective use of data. Going the extra mile to stand out and build an experience your customers want to engage with is where our guest, Tarek Nseir, thrives. Head of Digital Engagement at EPAM, he chats with CEO.digital about Digital Engagement and EPAM’s work with Sitecore.

Tarek Nseir has the backstory of a marketing maverick, starting his first digital agency at university when an unmissable opportunity presented itself. He’s never looked back and has an incredible portfolio to show for the ambition and calculated risk-taking that’s seen him excel.
