\"Women<\/p>\n

Over the past few years aka \u201cthe Covid years\u201d the role of influence in B2B marketing has grown significantly. Our 2022 research report, The State of B2B Influencer Marketing<\/a>, reported that 85% of B2B marketers believe that interest in working with influencers in the coming 12 months will increase. On top of that, of the B2B marketers that do engage in influencer marketing programs, 86% consider their efforts successful.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a lot to be optimistic about, especially in a business environment that requires B2B marketers to find every advantage they can to grow in a potentially down market.<\/p>\n

The rising tide of influencer marketing popularity amongst B2B brands has also seen a shift towards a more diverse group of influencers. Now don\u2019t get me wrong, the majority of influencers I\u2019m seeing from B2B brands are still the usual suspects which doesn\u2019t exactly represent 100% of the audiences brands are trying to reach. So there has been movement towards engaging more women and people of color as influencers in the B2B space.<\/p>\n

At TopRank Marketing we\u2019re doing our small part to shine a light on more diverse talent within the B2B marketing world and with this 13th edition of our Women Who Rock list, we\u2019re highlighting a mix of women that are influential in various B2B industries. From rising stars to north stars, from Bay Area to Zurich, we have a sample of the fast growing segment of influencer talent B2B brands should be considering as partners in their marketing programs.<\/p>\n
