As people return to their workplaces, and get back into the world, he expects to see a return to trade shows and in-person business events, noting, “We are really focusing our coming year on bringing the company together into a single ecommerce leader, as well as focusing on expanding our footprint in business intent and in the wedding applications, because as you can imagine, there’s a lot of pent-up demand on the wedding side as well.” Looking ahead a little further, Bellamy adds, “I think the future of this industry is incredibly bright, as we see these trends of entrepreneurship and personalization coming together, combined with ecommerce.
