6 in 10 B2B organisations expect growth in marketing budgets next year

They believe their “financial fluency” investment will finally pay off.

Optimism has returned in the B2B sector, with around two-thirds of senior B2B marketing leaders (64%) expecting growth in their budgets over the next year.

According to LinkedIn, the return of optimism in the sector has pushed most (82%) B2B brands to increase the use of Generative AI.

B2B brands said they plan to increase their use of Generative AI to increase efficiency and focus on higher-value work (59%) and generate more content in less time (50%)

Meanwhile, the study also found that seven in 10 chief financial officers (CFOs) from B2B organisations also feel optimistic about marketing’s ability to drive revenue in the year ahead.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
