San Francisco, CA – April 25, 2025 — Johnroe Guray, Founder of 3Rivers Global LLC, participated in the AI x Marketing Summit 2025 held on April 23-24, 2025, at the Marines’ Memorial Club and Hotel in San Francisco, California. His participation was by invitation from Averi AI through Tommy Tannenbaum, further highlighting the strategic connections driving innovation at the intersection of AI and marketing.
The two-day summit brought together top minds in AI, marketing, and digital business transformation to explore the accelerating impact of AI-driven solutions across industries and customer engagement practices. Speakers from organizations such as Averi AI, Asana, Clay, Qualcomm and others offered practical frameworks, cutting-edge use cases, and transformational strategies for AI adoption in marketing.
During the event, Johnroe shared pivotal insights, noting:
“One of the things a lot of people get wrong about AI is thinking it’s just something you activate and it does the job for you. It’s really not. It’s just a tool—success depends on the model you build around it, and the people who power that model.”
This insight resonated with one of the summit’s recurring themes: technology alone is not a strategy—people, models, and purposeful execution are the true differentiators.
