As managing director of Informa Connect’s martech group, I lead our marketing, insights, and innovation portfolios, which include the Content Marketing Institute. Previously, I served as VP of content marketing for the technology portfolio at UBM (acquired by Informa in 2018), providing strategic guidance on content development, content optimization, audience engagement, and go-to-market platforms for technology clients.

With more than three decades of media and event experience, I love helping shape new multimedia content and event experiences. I live in the Washington, DC, area with my husband, and we enjoy taking care of our many pets and visiting our two daughters.

Robert Rose is the chief troublemaker at Seventh Bear, where he helps businesses break free from stale marketing, rediscover their creativity, and actually make an impact. He’s been called a strategist, an innovator, and – by at least one former boss – "a dangerous amount of fun.” Since 2010, he’s been the chief strategy advisor at the Content Marketing Institute, where he helped shape it into the world’s leading content marketing education and training organization.

Robert has helped business leaders balance the art and science of content and marketing, guiding over 500 companies including Salesforce, SAP, Roche, Capital Group, and Adidas. As a fractional marketing leader, he specializes in modern marketing that doesn’t rely on spammy funnels, soulless automation, or whatever the latest “hack” is that’ll be obsolete by next Tuesday. You can connect with Robert on LinkedIn, or follow him on Bluesky at @Robertrose.me.

I joined CMI in late 2017 to head up the team that plans, produces, polishes, and packages nearly everything you read on the site.

After more than 20 years of working in content marketing (for tech companies large and small), I love to swap stories about content marketing with this engaged and engaging community. In particular, I enjoy talking to content marketers who’ve successfully built loyal audiences and produced measurable business results. And also to content marketers who are still working on it.

I left my heart near San Francisco. (The rest of me lives there, too.)

My CMI journey is an epic tale, best told in person so you can experience it in high-definition – complete with side stories and wild hand gesticulations. Until we have the pleasure of meeting IRL, I’ll say this:

In the 14+ years that I’ve worked with this amazing team, I’ve been involved in nearly every aspect of our editorial operations. Currently, I’m director of editorial content and strategy, a role I describe as a combination of strategic alchemist, process architect, and creative explorer. I perform at my best whenever I get to focus my creativity, deep audience understanding, and penchant for tech experimentation on helping marketers conquer any content challenge more effectively.

Prior to this role, I spent over a decade developing and managing content initiatives for brand clients in the entertainment, CPG, health care, technology, and biotech industries, as well as for agencies and media brands. But as those days weren’t bathed in the warm, orange glow of CMI, did they ever truly exist?
