Siegel+Gale’s research, developed in conjunction with SAP and Shift Thinking, and published in Harvard Business Review, suggests that digital brands operate and think differently from traditional brands.

As AI begins to shape our daily lives, brands must consider how they shift their behaviors and interactions to meet customers’ evolving expectations.
