Moderated by Carolyn April, Vice President of Research & Market Intelligence at GTIA, the panel will feature an exciting line-up of some of the IT channel’s leading voices, including:
"Success in the IT channel is driven by a blend of proven fundamentals, early adoption of emerging technologies, and our ability to deliver increasing value to customers,” said April. “ChannelCon attendees won’t want to miss the compelling insights shared by this power panel of IT channel influencers on the market’s evolution, the external forces shaping our industry, and strategies for positioning organizations today for sustainable growth in the future. We are especially thrilled to welcome Rania Succar, the newly appointed CEO at Kaseya, to this panel in what will be one of her first appearances at a major industry event since joining the company in June.”
