The conference will take place May 7-9, 2018 at the Chicago Marriott Downtown in Chicago.
B2B Online is the leading digital marketing conference for manufacturers and distributors. Kittur's and Sauers' keynote session, titled "Enhancing Customer Experience with Data and Analytics," will discuss how distributors can use data and analytics to improve customer experience and overall business performance. The session will headline day two of the conference, which is themed "Engagement & Customer Experience Optimization."
"B2B companies are increasingly expected to deliver a B2C commerce experience," said Kittur. "This has resulted in many B2B companies making decisions with under-leveraged insights.
