I'm also a real advocate of putting our customers at the centre of all our decisions. The development of Technology for Marketing and the decision to co-locate the three events is based on over 1,000 customer research interviews, and will result in something which will both inspire and inform. We've got some really exciting plans which I'm looking forward to revealing over the coming months, alongside my colleagues working on Customer Contact Expo."
