Business events provide a host of benefits from keeping you up to date with new and emerging trends and techniques to providing an opportunity to win new business. A recent analysis showed that 68% of B2B marketers use in-person events for lead generation initiatives. While most marketers believe that events are the single most effective marketing channel over digital advertising, email and content marketing.
