B2B Events: The Power of Connections
A B2B event starts with being aware of its potential. Events are not just social meetings, but key platforms for knowledge acquisition, exchange of ideas and networking.
According to a study by Deloitte, 90% of companies consider networking to be an essential part of their success. In addition, according to Robert Walters, companies with a solid networking source are likely to have 15% more chances to grow.
Additionally, based on a recent study by MarketSplash, the event management industry is projected to experience 23% annual growth, reaching a market value of $404 billion by 2027.
These figures speak to the incalculable value that these meetings have for the IT sector. Whether face-to-face, virtual or hybrid, each modality offers unique opportunities to learn, connect and thrive.
What are the benefits of a B2B event?
Here are two essential pillars:
- Strengthens your personal and professional brand: While B2B events are organized by companies to establish relationships with other entities, it’s ultimately the people within those companies who interact.
- Increases your company’s visibility and recognition: Even if the focus of the event is informational and not commercial, this will have a positive impact on your company’s positioning.
What role do events play within the corporate marketing strategy?
- They allow you to create a point of differentiation: Taking event planning to the next level allows you to stand out from the competition, demonstrating the innovation and uniqueness of your business.
- Increase the reach of your service: Events are an effective tool to increase your company’s visibility, leaving a lasting impression on attendees and encouraging engagement.
- New execution opportunities: Event management is flexible and adjusts to the needs of businesses of any size, sector or objective, with face-to-face, hybrid and virtual options, generating quality leads, driving sales and establishing strategic alliances with other companies through sponsorships.
