A change in where people discover brands is only part of the AI-era marketing problem; the other is whether the data used to evaluate marketing still tells a dependable story. Ayudante’s two-session seminar puts those questions side by side.
Visibility and measurement, in the same conversation
Ray Grieselhuber’s 4:40 p.m. talk, “The AI Search Revolution – Key Strategies to Adapt Your Action,” looks at how AI-powered search, generated answers and agentic experiences may change the ways customers encounter brands. The session considers what those shifts could mean for search strategy beyond the familiar emphasis on rankings and clicks.
Naohiro Yamaura’s 5:25 p.m. session, “What AI Can’t See: Fixing the Hidden Gaps in Marketing Measurement,” turns to the data behind marketing decisions. Its focus is how lost signals can affect AI-driven marketing, and why reliable measurement and human oversight matter when teams use data to guide decisions.
The connection is practical: visibility does not by itself show whether a campaign is working, and incomplete signals can limit what marketers can conclude or ask AI tools to do. The seminar divides that problem between discovery and measurement rather than treating AI as a single, general-purpose topic.

Different experience behind the two sessions
Grieselhuber is founder and CEO of DemandSphere, an AI-powered search analytics platform for enterprise SEO teams. Ayudante’s biography credits him with more than 18 years across technical SEO, data science and machine learning. Before DemandSphere, he built an enterprise SEO platform at Covario and co-founded Functionize, an AI-based test-automation company.
Yamaura brings more than three decades of experience in Japan’s advertising and digital business sector. For the event, Ayudante lists him as Director and COO of Ayudante, Inc. in Tokyo, Chairman and CEO of Ayudante APAC Pte. Ltd., and COO of Ayudante Canada, Inc. He is also described as a university lecturer and corporate trainer, and has written eight books on Google Analytics and digital marketing. His listed MBA is from the National University of Singapore.
Masaki Kuroshima moderates. Ayudante identifies him as a business development representative with more than 15 years in consulting; his previous work includes HIS, Rakuten and Kikkoman. His profile notes digital-transformation work at Rakuten, including support for moving services from offline to online.

The event is listed through 7 p.m., but the agenda names no activity for the final ten minutes. Anyone planning around the listed end time should note that the last timed item finishes earlier.

Two talks, then questions with the speakers
After doors open and brief opening remarks, the agenda moves from a 45-minute session on AI search to a 30-minute talk on measurement. The 6 p.m. reception combines networking with direct questions for both speakers, and includes light refreshments. Closing remarks are timed for 6:45–6:50 p.m.; although the event listing runs until 7, it does not specify what happens in the remaining ten minutes.
