Adrian Howett Named VP, AI and Technology at Silver | B Corp

Andrew Clayton has taken on the role of Vice President, Americas at Silver | B Corp, adding a senior leadership appointment to the agency’s growing regional operations.

Clayton’s move comes as B2B marketing continues to evolve around changing buyer behavior, digital channels, data, and artificial intelligence. Regional leadership roles are increasingly focused on connecting client requirements with marketing strategy while coordinating teams across creative, content, technology, and media.

As VP, Americas, Clayton will contribute to Silver’s activities across the Americas, working within an agency environment where B2B brands are navigating increasingly complex customer journeys. Business buyers now engage with brands across websites, social platforms, search, events, content, and other digital touchpoints before entering a sales conversation.

This has placed greater emphasis on integrated marketing strategies and stronger alignment between marketing and sales. Agencies are increasingly expected to help clients understand audiences, develop relevant content, and measure engagement across the customer journey.

Artificial intelligence is adding another layer to this transformation. B2B marketing teams are using AI for research, content development, audience analysis, personalization, and campaign optimization. At the same time, marketers are assessing how these tools can be incorporated without losing the strategic and human elements of B2B communications.

For regional agency leaders, these developments create a need to balance global marketing trends with local market dynamics. The Americas represents a diverse business environment, with organizations operating across different industries, markets, and stages of digital maturity.

Clayton’s appointment places him within this evolving environment, with a role that connects regional leadership with client strategy and the broader direction of B2B marketing.

The move also highlights the increasing importance of leadership roles that bridge business strategy and marketing execution. As agencies work across data, technology, creative, content, and customer experience, regional leaders are increasingly responsible for ensuring these capabilities work together.

For the wider MarTech ecosystem, Clayton’s move reflects the continued convergence of B2B marketing, technology, AI, and client strategy.

His appointment represents another leadership development within the B2B agency landscape as brands and agencies continue adapting to changing buyer expectations and emerging marketing technologies.
