B2B events, content, and commerce platform serving vertical industries
Emerald operates a portfolio of industry-specific events, content platforms, and lead-generation services across verticals like design, construction, and business development. The stack reveals a hybrid operations model—Salesforce + HubSpot for CRM, ON24 for virtual events, ERP/financial systems (Epicor, NetSuite, OneStream), and heavy use of Microsoft Office and project tools—indicating a complex, multi-revenue-stream business balancing in-person and digital delivery. Sales and marketing dominate the 35-person hiring mix, aligned with pain points around attendee/exhibitor growth and renewing partner relationships.
