Marketing leaders from prominent companies, including Grab, Dentsu, and Nestlé, participated in the event, sharing insights on how content-driven commerce on TikTok is transforming consumer interactions and driving full-funnel business impact.

Asha Gourinath, Head of Growth Capabilities, Performance Marketing and Media, Grab SEA, shared on how  TikTok’s creator networks enhance the visibility of Grab’s ‘Boss of Lunch’ campaign, achieving a 13% incremental conversion rate, far higher than any previous campaigns.

We found the sharing on the  ‘Face of Courage’ campaign in the Philippines by Dan Paris, Chief Product and Growth Officer, Dentsu Creative, particularly inspiring. The campaign addressed the sensitive topic of domestic violence using generative AI and TikTok for amplification.

Nadia Louis, Head of Digital and eCommerce, Asia, Oceania, Africa, Middle East, Nestlé, shared how Nestlé emerged as the top F&B brand during the 4.4 sale through TikTok ads and engagements, achieving a 1.9x GMV increase and a 2.1x order uplift.

Transforming Commerce in Southeast Asia

Commerce in Southeast Asia is undergoing a major transformation, with content-led experiences merging discovery and purchase. TikTok, with over 325 million users in the region, is at the forefront of this shift. Its content-driven commerce model allows businesses to build brand awareness, generate interest, and drive demand on a single platform.

TikTok Shop, the platform’s shopping ecosystem, has further strengthened this experience, combining community, creativity, and commerce for a seamless customer journey.
