A Quest for Excellence in BtoB Marketing
Ichiro Niyama, CEO of Symphony Marketing, shared insights on the significance of joining BBN. "Since 2017, I have been part of a global marketing network, but the evolution of demand generation technologies and AI prompted a shift toward a more specialized network. Joining BBN, an organization I trust and recognize for its BtoB marketing expertise, will bolster our offerings to clients seeking global marketing support."
During the Annual General Meeting held in October 2025 in a historic castle near Frankfurt, Germany, Niyama assessed BBN's ability to facilitate global marketing for clients. "Unlike mere community networks, BBN comprises accomplished firms excelling in BtoB marketing across various countries. Joining this network reassures me that we can significantly enhance our support for clients in North America, Europe, and Asian markets."
