In collaboration with Salesforce and WPP, the Mirum India MarTech Report 2021 attempts to identify the trends and opportunities that are driving MarTech growth across industries in India.
Mirum India, in collaboration with Salesforce and WPP, launched the ‘Mirum India MarTech Report 2021’, a guide for the emerging landscape of MarTech in India. The report is based on a survey administered by Kantar and the final insights are derived from a sample size of 250+ CEOs, and CMOs within the industry verticals like BFSI, Retail, FMCG, Auto, Media & Technology.
MarTech in India has been witnessing significant growth following the rapid expansion of the digital economy. This has further been accelerated by the shift in consumer behavior due to the global pandemic. Digital has become a key channel for customer acquisition, engagement, conversion, and retention. The focus of this study is on identifying the trends and opportunities that are driving MarTech growth in India.
The Mirum India MarTech Report 2021 has identified a new cohort of leaders in the industry named 'Martech Heroes'. They are the extensive users of MarTech and will increase their spending substantially in the next three years. More than quarters of MarTech Heroes prefer to choose marketing technology that is part of an ‘Integrated Suite’ rather than a ‘Point Solution’ and one in two states that their marketing strategy is fully driven by creativity.
While marketing technology is widely used across businesses, the Mirum India MarTech Report 2021 shows the top verticals using MarTech are BFSI, Retail, Consumer Durables, Media & Technology, and Automobiles.
