Nikhil Mehrotra shared this“Some premieres happen in theatres. Ours happened on a scale we’ll never forget.” Nutanix .Next on Tour, Mumbai with 5000 attendee's. Against all odds — we did it. Doing an event of this size and scale on a Tuesday, in middle of #Navratri when people are on fast and to add to it - it was a rainy day! And for me, this one was personal. Not only did we pull off a high-stakes event it was also my first big stage presence at an event of this scale. From "this-can’t-be-done" to "how-did-we-even-pull-this-off?" — we lived every scene. Witnessing 900+ attendee's at 6:30am queuing even though it wasn't an #iphone17 launch was a special moment. Having #25+ sponsor's to come together showcasing the power of ecosystem. Special thanks to our President and CEO Rajiv Ramaswami our APJ GM Jay Tuseth Channel chief Michael Magura and Jordan Reizes for unconditional support. Huge shoutout to the dream team who made the impossible look effortless Faiz Shakir Naresh Purohit Pavithra Vansay Chitiz Gupta Renu AsraniVikram Singh

We are not just talking about the future, we are building it with game-changing announcements like #Nutanix #AgenticAI #NKP #NutanixEnterpriseAI and #CloudNative #AOS, showcasing our unique strengths in the next-gen #tech #evolution. During the event, I was deeply honored to be recognized as the Channel SE of the Year 🏆 As a Techno-Commercial Advocate, I have always believed that success is a synchronized effort where every part of the ecosystem acts as a vital gear. I am incredibly grateful to the Nutanix Organization, our partner and distribution network, alliance OEMs, and ISVs. A special shout-out to Vikas Jain for the unwavering support and guidance. Most importantly, our customers whose trust drives us to innovate! I’m leaving Vietnam feeling thankful and more inspired than ever to bring a creative edge to how we drive positive business outcomes. The best is yet to come!

Nikhil Mehrotra reacted on thisNikhil Mehrotra reacted on this"𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘶𝘮𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘴𝘯'𝘵 𝘢 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘰𝘯. 𝘚𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘸𝘪𝘧𝘦." - 𝘋𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘥 𝘖𝘨𝘪𝘭𝘷𝘺. 1963. We spent a full day at B2B World Summit 2026 talking about AI, GEO, dark funnels, agentic search, and the death of the click. And somehow, this sixty-year-old line said it all. Because here's what every conversation kept coming back to. Underneath the tools, the tech, and the transformation: B2B Marketing has always been, and will always be, human to human. AI is here. It is changing discovery, content, and the buying journey. But the person at the end of that journey? Still a person. In B2B, it’s a committee rather. Definitely not a data point. Good panels give you one thing to think about. This one gave me ten. - Discovery has changed. Content hasn't lost its job. LLMs do not send people to your website anymore. They summarise you, describe you, judge you, without a single click. GEO is the new SEO and getting in early is the whole move right now. - The dark funnel is darker than ever. Your buyer has already decided long before they fill a form. A Reddit thread, a LinkedIn post, a voice prompt. That is where trust gets built or quietly lost. The real question is who speaks for you when you are not in the room. - Human to human is back. The more AI floods content, the bigger the empathy gap grows. Marketers have to be the ones who close it. Turn customers into advocates. Measure the length of the relationship, not just the revenue at the end of it. - AI is a force multiplier. Not a shortcut. Better conversations, smarter offers, data at scale. All of it is possible, but only with clean data, the right context, and real governance. Caution here is not a weakness. It is a strategy. - The basics? Completely untouched. Live with your product. Make campaigns from the heart. Ogilvy did not need an algorithm. He just needed to respect the person he was talking to. Sixty years later, that is still the whole game. Super grateful to share the stage with ROCH FERREIRA, Nikhil Mehrotra, Anoop Bharadwaj, Bhaskar Madapura more was said on the panel than any linkedin post can hold. To fellow speakers in the corridors, thank you for bringing decades of real experience. And to RP Singh, Saikat Das Mohanty, Akankasha Singh, thank you for building a summit where honest conversations actually happen. #B2BWorldSummit #B2BMarketing #FutureOfContent #GEO #AIMarketing #DarkFunnel #ContentStrategy #B2BContent #BrandBuilding

Nikhil Mehrotra liked thisNikhil Mehrotra liked thisWhere is B2B marketing headed in the age of AI. That was the question 200+ marketing leaders from some of India's most respected B2B brands were trying to answer at Chancery Pavilion, Bangalore, last Friday. The day had two distinct energies running in parallel. One half of the room was leaning into AI hard. The other was asking whether trust and brand still matter when algorithms are making decisions. Honestly, you need both to survive in today's AI-first world. I got a chance to run a masterclass on #GEO, Generative Engine Optimization, the hottest topic in marketing right now, focused on B2B enterprises. My conversation focussed on three gaps that are missed by most enterprise marketing leaders when it comes to optimising visibility on AI: ~ The benchmarking blindspot. ~ The vanity metrics trap. ~ The narrative drift problem. The conversation at the sidelines of the event revolved around questions like: where does my brand actually show up when a buyer asks an AI for recommendations in my category? Where are we on the GEO maturity curve? What do we tell the board when they ask about AI discoverability? Is this a future problem or a now problem? My take: It's a Friday afternoon problem. Not 2027. Now. To the Kreativ Street team: Ragini Rai Ankit S. Pranali Jain Mohit Setiya Gaurav Dabral Rajnish Kumar Mishra: none of this was possible without you. The prep, the stall, the energy on the day. Proud of what we built together. And to the Semrush team - Sandeepa Roy Shruthi M Somya Kaur Rehan Ceren Civaner: thank you for showing up as true partners. The platform intelligence you bring to GEO is what lets us go beyond conversation and actually show brands where they stand, and what to do about it. To the wonderful speakers with whom I got a chance to share the stage Dr. Harsh Chopra Sanjay Chaudhary Bidisha Nagaraj Pallavi Pandey Giridhar Gorur Anshul Kaushesh Jyoti Makhija Suraj Atreya Kartik Murugan Tushar Bansode Adarsh Pete Shashwat Ghosh Hari Prasad N Naveen Malhotra Monalisa Sahoo Bhadresh Dani ROCH FERREIRA Nikhil Mehrotra Bhaskar Madapura Anoop Bharadwaj Vani Aggarwal And finally, cheers to RP Singh Saikat Das Mohanty and the team for putting together a room worth being in. That felt like a good Friday. B2B World Summit #EnterpriseMarketing #B2BMarketing #AI #GEO #FutureOfSearch

Nikhil Mehrotra reacted on thisNikhil Mehrotra reacted on thisToday’s announcement at #NVIDIAGTC marks a definitive shift in the enterprise AI landscape for Nutanix customers. We’ve watched the OpenClaw phenomenon prove that agentic AI has moved beyond research labs into the real world. The question facing every leadership team today isn’t if they will deploy agents, but how fast they can do so without breaking their security or their budget. #NutanixAgenticAI is our answer. We are giving you the blueprint to turn siloed AI experiments into a high-scale AI factory. ✅Speed to Innovation for developers We’re removing the friction that kills momentum. Through the Nutanix Kubernetes Platform, your teams get immediate access to a curated catalog of agentic frameworks and LLMs. With our new AI Gateway, they can bridge the gap between cloud-hosted and private models instantly, building sophisticated agents in days, not months. ✅Unified operations for infrastructure teams AI shouldn't be a special project that requires its own island of management. We’re enabling you to run your AI workloads using the same cloud operating model you’ve trusted for years. You can now deliver GPU resources at the speed of the business while maintaining absolute control. ✅Economics of scale for CISOs We are fundamentally redefining AI economics. By treating AI resources as a centralized, shared pool rather than fragmented silos, we maximize GPU utilization and drastically lower your cost-per-token. We’re making AI a sustainable part of your P&L, not a runaway expense. ✅Trust by design for security teams Innovation at the cost of security is a non-starter. Our architecture integrates MCP server support and enterprise-grade isolation, ensuring that as your agents interact with sensitive data, they remain firmly within your governance perimeter.
