Why B2B Summit matters for sales teams

The B2B Summit audience is exactly the group most revenue-tech vendors want to reach: CMOs, sales leaders, demand and ABM heads and RevOps teams at B2B companies. The event is smaller than the big conferences, which makes meetings easier to arrange.

For vendors, a list of attending companies and roles helps you plan focused conversations around the topics Forrester highlights, such as alignment between marketing and sales.

Who should attend B2B Summit?

Go if you sell to revenue, operations or technology leaders in this space and can commit to pre-show outreach. The audience is senior enough that a handful of good meetings can justify the whole trip.

Think twice if your product is early-stage or your sales cycle needs a long technical evaluation. You may get better returns from a smaller regional event first, and from following up with B2B Summit attendees after the show.

How much does B2B Summit cost?

Option Price / details
Also good to know Pricing on request / when 2027 registration opens; historically around $2,500-3,500
Typical cost ~$2,500-3,500 (confirm).

Prices change between editions and by registration date, so treat these as a guide and check forrester.com/event before you buy.

Does B2B Summit have an app?

Forrester provides an event app for registered attendees.

Event apps are built for attendees, not for sales teams. You can usually browse profiles one by one, but connection requests are capped, many profiles are half empty, and there is rarely an export button. That makes the app useful on site and frustrating for planning.

Is B2B Summit worth it?

Pros Cons
Senior B2B revenue leaders Pricing on request
Research-driven content Smaller sponsor hall
Smaller, focused crowd

Getting meetings at B2B Summit

When What to do
Early planning Pull the attendee, exhibitor and speaker lists and score them against your ideal customer profile.
Pre-show outreach Contact your top tier personally and your second tier with a short sequence. Aim to book meetings, not booth visits.
On site Work from a printed or mobile list of priority accounts and use breaks and evening events for warm introductions.
Post-show Follow up fast, share what you promised, and keep the list for next year’s edition.

Forrester’s frameworks are well known to attendees. Framing your pitch in their language (for example, revenue engine or buyer journey) makes conversations easier.
