Annual ON24 research reveals audience engagement increases by 7X when the power of webinars and virtual events is combined with AI-generated content
ON24, a leading intelligent engagement platform for B2B sales and marketing, released its 2025 Digital Engagement Benchmarks Report, analyzing millions of B2B professionals’ interactions with digital experiences in 2024. The report highlights how webinars, virtual events and digital experiences in conjunction with AI-generated content and personalization from these experiences are significantly increasing customer engagement and accelerating pipeline growth.
The report found that audience engagement with AI-generated content from webinars soared by more than 7X in 2024, a figure far higher than the 3X growth in AI content creation over the same period. This surge in engagement demonstrates that B2B audiences are not only accepting AI-generated content but actively seeking it out. Additionally, personalized experiences showed performance improvements, with marketers seeing 4X more demo requests compared to generic experiences.
“The data clearly shows that B2B marketing is entering a new era where AI and personalization are not just nice-to-haves but essential drivers of success,” said Mark Bornstein, VP of Marketing, ON24. “Marketers that have integrated personalization are achieving record engagement and conversion rates. As we move further into 2025, the gap between companies embracing these innovations and those that don’t will only continue to widen.”
