The G3 team of almost 50 employees, including Andrew Gaffney, Senior Vice President, will join Emerald, reporting into Johanna Morse, Senior Vice President of Emerald’s Creative Group.

“We partnered with G3 to bring their Retail TouchPoints Live conference program to Emerald’s RetailX show in Chicago this past June. Customer feedback was extremely positive, and we firmly believe there are significant opportunities to bring G3’s conference programming to many of Emerald’s retail-focused events in the future,” said Ms. Morse. “Both the retail industry and the broader B2B sector in general are going through dramatic transformations, largely due to shifts in sales channels and changes in buyer behaviors, and G3 can help us to inform and educate our customers so that they are better prepared for these changes.”

“The rapid expansion of our B2B Marketing Exchange events has put us in a unique position for continued growth and to add value to a wider base of industries and job roles,” said Mr. Gaffney. “The prospect of leveraging Emerald’s resources, infrastructure and expertise, particularly in the event space, excites us as we look to scale our existing events and launch new ones, as well as deliver new value in the industries we serve.”
