The Linux Foundation Moment

December 2025 marks a definitive tipping point for the Model Context Protocol.

December 2025 marks a definitive tipping point for the Model Context Protocol (MCP). With its official donation to the Linux Foundation, MCP has transitioned from an Anthropic-led initiative to the global open standard for AI connectivity. For MarTech leaders, this solves the 'integration paralysis' that has plagued the industry for a decade.

  • MCP is now a global open standard under Linux Foundation governance
  • Moving from bespoke, brittle API connectors to a universal language
  • Every marketing tool (CDPs, Analytics, CRMs) becomes instantly readable by AI agents
  • The era of building proprietary 'AI wrappers' is over
💡 Pro Tip

The competitive advantage now lies in exposing your proprietary data and logic via MCP Servers to the ecosystem of agentic tools.
