About this event
Heroes, innovators, disruptors, catalysts, backbone of the global economy: B2B companies literally move the world forward. They create the products and services to discover the drugs to defeat pandemics. They develop the technologies that underlie virtually every other market and business category. They rush headfirst into global crises – like climate change – to find solutions. They use sheer imagination to create new markets that didn’t exist before.
In recognition, ANA NYC proclaims December 8th the first annual ‘B2B Day’ – and will focus on the contributions of these remarkable enterprises and their marketers. The event will provide a breathtaking look ahead to big, bold B2B contributions to come.
