THINKstrategies, the Cloud Computing Showplace, and Rising Tide Media hosted our second annual Cloud Channel Summit earlier this week, giving executives from leading cloud and channel companies a peer-to-peer networking forum where they could  share perspectives on how to forge successful partnerships to capitalize on the unprecedented opportunities created by the cloud.

More importantly, it brought together a greater mix of channel company executives to interact with those from various cloud companies.
