Comments from participants

A great event every time, especially the group discussions and presentations were good.
Risto Niemelä, Marketing Director, SOK, Finland

600Minutes BtoB Marketing&Sales enabled true sharing of information and it provides a forum for networking, which many other events do not manage to do. The conversations in small groups and the idea of pre-booked meetings where you can ask precise questions relevant to your business is a great idea. I would attend this interactive event again!
Kimmo Heikkonen, Senior Marketing Manager, Nokia Corporation, Finland

The one-to-one meetings with the service providers and the group discussions were the best parts of the event.
Merja Rinta-Erkkilä, Director, UPM-Kymmene Oyj, Finland
