“This is where C-level executives from our nation’s top companies come to learn how to use complex data and AI—explained at a high-level through real examples—to direct and manage their organization’s growth. These three speakers from CenturyLink, LogMeIn and CA Technologies will join the growing list of executives sharing their unique experiences with data-driven sales and their lessons learned along the path to success.”

CenturyLink is the second largest U.S. communications provider to global enterprise customers and strives to be the world’s best networking company by solving customers’ increased demand for reliable and secure connections.
“In today’s business environment, companies must ‘accelerate’ how they embrace and utilize new technologies to successfully engage and grow their customer base,” said Vernon Irvin, president, government, education, medium and small business, CenturyLink.
“Events like the Accelerate conference are unique because they allow top executives to engage in meaningful conversation around not only the technologies, but the business practices that are driving market success today.”

The opportunity to meet other like-minded executives at Accelerate to learn how they’re driving better outcomes in selling to mid-market and enterprise companies is why attending this conference is one of the highlights of my year professionally,” said Amy Appleyard, vice president of sales at LogMeIn.
