As the pandemic continues to give a boost to the stay-at-home economy, sales teams have gone completely digital in the pursuit of new clients while traditional marketing channels like trade shows and conferences are on hold. Artificial Intelligence (AI) in business development is an area seeing disruption thanks to mass adoption of this technology. With the data-driven lead generation market benefiting from AI automation megatrends, the opportunity for growth remains massive. It’s no surprise why ZoomInfo – a SaaS platform that helps B2B sales and marketing professionals identify and connect with their next customers via data and insights on 14 million businesses – was the first tech IPO of the COVID era (ZI’s stock price soared 62% above its Nasdaq debut in June).
