“It is an honor to return to B2BMX,” said Gonzalez. “I’m excited to share real strategies and best practices for driving more value and higher returns from leading-edge technology and channel marketing investments at what has become a truly dynamic industry event.”
A well-known industry analyst and established channel thought leader, Gonzalez will discuss Getting Smart About Applying AI in B2B Channels at 11:25 AM on Tuesday, February 26. He will explore how AI, machine learning and propensity modeling can intersect with channel programs to improve visibility and results.
