At The MarTech Alliance, we have a unique ability to segue any conversation topic and make it about marketing and technology. It's a true gift.
And so as excitement was reaching frenzied levels ahead of the World Cup in Russia our minds wandered to familiar territory and we began compiling a mental list of the industry's best and brightest (in our humble opinion), and just who would make the cut in our ultimate dream team.
So while Robbie Williams gyrated his way through the opening ceremony we brainstormed over a beer or two and came up with our marketing dream team.
