The agenda of Channel Direction Live, which will be held September 28-30 at the Grand Hyatt in Tampa, Florida, will address:
- Market forces affecting the IT channel that require whole new strategies
- Business model implications for vendors, distributors, and solution providers
- Emerging business opportunities in new solutions: cloud, mobile, big data and many more
- Networking – and working – with peers and partners to build valuable new relationships
The dynamics of the IT channel are changing – drastically, permanently and disruptively – and so is the structure of the channel value chain, along with the core business models for individual players. Channel Directions Live is a can't-miss opportunity to examine new solutions to sell and new ways to deliver value to customers.
"The entire technology buyer, seller and reseller ecosystem has been turned upside-down with the advent of Cloud-based computing. This educational event has been created with express purpose of bringing sellers and their reseller partners together to help them jointly develop fully executable go-to-market strategies in these "everything-as-a-service" end user buyer markets," said Steve Veith, Vice President of Penton Technology and Market Leader.
Whether you're a Solution Provider, MSP or CSP, you'll find this event to be unlike any other. It's not just a series of product pitches or PowerPoint decks. This is a hands-on, working event focused on understanding the new way of doing business in the channel, with specific working groups for every type of provider.
"We are hosting our first Channel Direction event to give IT Channel leaders and solution providers a rare opportunity to come together in an intimate setting to share insights and develop new strategies for growing business amid the extraordinary transformation that's reshaping the industry," said Marcia Parker, Executive Director, Content, for Penton Technology.
Attendees will participate in lively idea sessions with industry experts, work side-by-side with Penton's editors and experts, and leave with specific strategies for overcoming their business challenges.
Don't miss this one-of-a-kind event. Reserve your spot in Channel Directions Live today.
