We knew day one of SiriusDecisions Summit 2015 would be an experience to remember, but even so, it far exceeded our expectations. There were a ton of incredible takeaways, so we wanted to capture our favorites here on our blog.
The day kicked off with Magic Johnson bringing the magic to the attendees! (Hehe.)
