"The ABM category has exploded the last few years transforming B2B marketing," said Chris Golec, CEO of Demandbase. "Challenging the status quo and getting real-world results are key themes of our conference. We're excited to have the legendary Billie Jean King, and the comedic storyteller, Aasif Mandvi headline our conference to share their inspiring experiences, along with presentations by more than 20 real-life ABM thought leaders and practitioners."

Named one of the "100 Most Important Americans of the 20th Century" by LIFE magazine and a 2009 recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, Billie Jean King is one of the greatest female tennis players of all time and a long-time champion for social justice and equality. In 1973, King produced one of the greatest moments in sports history when she defeated Bobby Riggs in the famous match dubbed "The Battle of the Sexes." It still remains one of the most viewed sports events of all time, and the story is now a major motion picture. King is the founder of the Billie Jean King Leadership Initiative, the Women's Sports Foundation and the Women's Tennis Association.

Aasif Mandvi is a Peabody award-winning actor, writer, creator, comedian, author and producer. He is a former correspondent for Emmy-winning "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" and author of No Man's Land. Mandvi's film credits include Drunk Parents, Mother's Day, Million Dollar Arm, The Internship, Movie 43, The Dictator, Dark Horse, Ruby Sparks, Gods Behaving Badly, Premium Rush, The Last Airbender, The Mystic Masseur, Analyze This, Spider-Man 2, and many others. Mandvi is currently developing a series titled Fatwa for Showtime, which he will create and also star.

The ABM Innovation Summit will also feature industry experts from companies such as LinkedIn, Cloudera, Merkle, Deloitte, Forrester, XL Catlin, Blackline, SAVO Group and ServiceMax by GE.

In addition to the roster of all-star speakers, conference attendees will have the opportunity to become Certified Account-Based Marketing Strategists through Demandbase's ABM certification program.
