Breakthrough 2025 logo

One of the best parts of Breakthrough? Watching 6sense customers take the stage to share their wins, their strategies, and results that make their peers stop and say, “Wow, how did they do that?!”

This year’s Breakthrough Awards honored nine visionaries who transformed how their teams work, how their pipelines grow, and what “success” looks like for B2B revenue teams.

These 6sense customers represent the bold moves, creative executions, and breakthrough moments that happen when you combine the right technology with people who are driven to learn, experiment, and push the boundaries of what’s possible.

Let’s celebrate the winners!


AI Game Changer of the Year

The award recognizes pioneers using 6AI, AI Email Agents, and more to supercharge engagement and pipeline growth.

Award Winner:

Simpro deployed AI Email Agents as “super BDRs” across their high-velocity SMB motion, handling everything from inbound follow-up to cold outbound to reactivation of closed-lost opportunities. The impact? A 34% year-over-year increase in MQLs, roughly two hours saved per BDR per day, and an 80% reduction in MQL loss due to faster automated follow-up.

According to Jenn Nelson, Director of Growth Marketing at Simpro: “The AI Email Agent hasn’t just saved time — it has fundamentally shifted how we scale growth.”

What makes a breakthrough?

These 6sense customers prove that breakthrough moments don’t happen by accident. They happen when teams stop accepting “good enough” and start asking “what if?”

Every Breakthrough is packed with sessions where customers like these share their victories, their strategies, and their honest takes on what worked and what didn’t. It’s where peer connections turn into problem-solving partnerships, and where you see what’s actually possible when you’re willing to challenge the status quo.

Congratulations to all our winners and finalists. Your vision is raising the bar for everyone.
