"Despite its short 30 year history, the IT channel is undergoing one of its most significant transformations due in part to the disruptive forces of cloud computing, the shift to services-based business models, the emergence of new suppliers and the arrival of start-up IT consulting firms challenging more mature solution providers," said Robert DeMarzo, Senior Vice President of Strategic Content for UBM Channel. "These new dynamics have made the IT channel ecosystem more interdependent than ever before as solution providers, vendors, app developers and consultants must work together to deliver technology and business solutions for the customer. What worked in the past may not work tomorrow or even next week, so solution providers need to reevaluate their go-to-market strategy and adopt new innovative approaches to IT channel success."
This unique channel industry conference will take place on October 24-26 at the St Regis Monarch Beach Resort, Dana Point, CA. For more information or to view the full agenda please visit www.bobconference.com.
