Beyond the CMS - A Content Management Podcast

In this episode of Beyond the CMS, host Chris sits down with Pardeep Koonar, Head of Partnerships at Agility CMS, a Canadian-born headless CMS platform that's been ahead of the curve for over 20 years.

They unpack:
-What headless and composable architecture really means (for marketers, not just developers)
-The rise of AI-driven search, agentic UX, and how CMS platforms are adapting
-Why Canadian companies are prioritizing data sovereignty and local tech stacks
-Real use cases from clients like Scotiabank, Cineplex, Westman Communications and more
The role of partnership ecosystems in building scalable, future-proof digital solutions
Chris and Pardeep also explore where the future of websites is headed—will AI be the new "head" in headless CMS? Is the traditional web page becoming obsolete?

Whether you’re a CMO evaluating CMS options, a developer exploring composable stacks, or an agency looking for an agile partner, this episode gives you practical insight into how agility (with a lowercase "a") can future-proof your digital experience.
