The following is a guest post by Luque Wang, a senior marketing manager of global strategy and operations at GE Digital. What is Marketing Operations? Ten years ago, marketing operations was still a very new role in org structures. The number of people with marketing operations as their job title were few and far between.

Our 2-day program delivers candid, in-depth, and unbiased content that you won’t get anywhere else. MarTech is designed specifically for marketing operations executives who are

Here’s another fun entry into The Stackies 2018: Marketing Tech Stack Awards that I thought I’d share from Alert Logic, a leading provider of information security solutions.
