Event Segment Performance - Gartner's Conferences segment showed resilience, with a 13.9% year-over-year increase in revenue, while Forrester's events business declined by 29% [15]. Government Spending Impact - Both companies noted headwinds from U.S. federal government spending, with Gartner's contract value growth at 4% excluding federal contracts, indicating a structural shift in this market [16]. Valuation Metrics - Gartner's market valuation has dropped to approximately 1.8 times revenue, while Forrester's is at 0.25 times revenue, reflecting historically low multiples for recurring-revenue businesses [18]. Strategic Shifts - The B2B landscape is undergoing a reset, with budgets being reallocated from traditional consulting and advisory services to AI-driven tools and platforms that offer measurable outcomes [19].
