AI in B2B sales

From the customers you never call to the deal you can’t lose.

A morning of practical ideas and real-life experiences on how AI is changing selling in both complex and transactional sales.

3 November 2026 08:30–11:30 Usine · Stockholm

AI improves both complex and transactional sales

Most B2B companies are built to chase a few named accounts and quietly ignore the rest. AI now makes both large deal orchestration as well as transactional sales in the long tail of your customer base more effective. But only if the team changes how it works. Hear from people who have done it inside their own companies.

Why now

With all this data, AI and technology available – how do we sell more?

Most B2B companies have a tech stack, CRM, data, and an AI pilot or two. What’s missing is a repeatable way to turn the available tools into actions that drive pipeline effectiveness.

In most organizations, that means thousands of customers with expansion potential but too few sales interactions to make it happen. And large deals where the deal orchestration does not touch the entire decision-making unit. 

Playbook 1: Long tail potential

The customers you never call

AI decides who is worth a conversation, drafts it and sends it, at a volume no sales team could staff.

  • • Reaching customers who are difficult to serve with named sales reps
  • • Signals on who to sell to and what to offer
  • • Ability to track results against a control group
Playbook 2: Winning big

Taking home the deal you can’t lose

Large, complex deals are won by moving everyone who decides, including the people your account team has never met.

  • • Mapping the full buying group
  • • Coordinating marketing, events and executive contacts around one account
  • • The roles most sales teams don’t have yet
