Cannes 2026: Build a Proprietary AI Agency Brain to Optimize Campaign Strategy | Anthony Romano, Laughlin Constable, Chief Executive Officer

Many corporate marketing strategies face dropping conversion rates because they rely entirely on open-source software, generating overlapping briefs that wash out into an uninspired middle ground.

Anthony Romano, CEO at Laughlin Constable, breaks down how to construct internal AI operating systems to organize team expertise into permanent, collaborative knowledge blocks.

He shares his operational playbook for preparing brand datasets to handle autonomous machine-to-machine shopping, building layer-free full-service agency architectures, and using specialized data libraries to ensure briefs start at an advanced 80% baseline.

Key tactical themes covered:

Building internal AI operating networks to protect corporate data and campaign uniqueness.

Modifying commodity product datasets to remain visible inside automated retail filters.

Unifying design strategy and programmatic media planning under layer-free structures.

Addressing modern team alignment drops caused by fast vertical department silos.

Restructuring massive digital operations into agile mini-agency models to optimize performance.
