Nara, Japan – Sharp Europe detailed how it built a digital infrastructure for one of the world's most complex B2B operations on Drupal, managing 120,000 enterprise customers across 48 countries with 17 sites in 19 languages.

The electronics giant generates €13.5 billion in annual revenue, with 40% coming from B2B operations that serve vastly different audiences – from 110,000 small enterprises requiring low-touch transactions to mid-market companies needing sophisticated engagement.

"Big, complex, broad, deep," said Jason Cort, who leads European product management and marketing for Sharp. "That's what our martech stack has to support."
