A market research conducted last year expects the $34.3 billion MarTech market in the US and UK to grow 10% in 2018. While the market is dominated by players like Adobe Systems, Oracle, Salesforce, and IBM, there are other smaller Billion Dollar Unicorns like HubSpot (HUBS) that are making their presence felt.
