The 2nd annual B2B Sales & Marketing Exchange — which took place late last month — was different than any other event the #B2BMX team has ever put on. 100% virtual, the event featured 50+ sessions and aimed to create an engaging experience for attendees. Below you’ll find some of our favorite tweets from the event.
