Our second annual Cloud Channel Summit clearly demonstrated what a difference a year can make.

A year ago, the participants of the inaugural Summit spent much of the day discussing whether there was a role for the channel in the cloud and how to get channel companies engaged in the rapidly evolving cloud marketplace. Our event reflected the market reality at that time with only a handful of traditional channel companies actively pursuing cloud strategies and only a few channel company executives attending our event.

This year’s Summit attracted an impressive array of senior executives from major distributors, resellers, managed services providers (MSPs) and other IT services companies such as Tech Data, Ingram-Micro, Insight, Avnet, Cloud Sherpas, All Covered, Spiceworks and Centerbeam.
