Constellation Research Spotlights Global Leaders Pioneering Disruptive Digital Initiatives

CUPERTINO, Calif. – January 23, 2025 – Constellation Research announced its annual Ambient Experience 100 (AX100), an elite list of global executives focused on transforming both customer and employee experiences across their markets and their organizations. These leaders represent an exclusive cadre of rule breakers, peers and influencers willing to rethink possible. 

The induction ceremony will be held at Constellation’s Ambient Experience Summit on February 25 in Woodinville, WA.

“Growth leaders are facing new challenges but also have more tools at their disposal than ever before,” said Martin Schneider, Vice President and Principal Analyst at Constellation Research. “The individuals named to the AX 100 are taking on these challenges with visionary approaches to building sustainable growth strategies that leverage technology and inventive approaches to process optimization - leading to standout customer experiences while driving outsized growth versus their peers.”

Constellation Research’s nomination committee looked for key traits and actions among the AX100 leaders:

  • Thinking outside of the box and breaking the status quo through bold measures 
  • Activating and advancing engagements that start with data and advance durable, profitable relationships
  • A willingness to explore and experiment, especially with new engagement forms and formats
  • Making real impact by guiding their organizations to reinvent themselves and disrupt their industries

"In this AI Era, customer and employee experience differentiation will be augmented, accelerated, and automated by AI," said R “Ray” Wang, founder and CEO at Constellation Research. "The leaders on this list recognize the impact ambient experiences will play in improving customer satisfaction, growing revenue per user, driving loyalty and retention, improving work force sentiment, fostering engagement, and transforming the brand perception. We salute these leaders for making the investments that matter."
