GTIA Trust Circles
GTIA Trust Circles are small-group experiences designed to bring channel leaders together through the trusted foundation of GTIA. Powered by GTIA’s expertise in channel education, intelligence, cybersecurity and global industry leadership, Trust Circles help you collaborate, benchmark performance based on metrics you define and strengthen your business.
This new program is launching first for GTIA members in the United States and Canada. Additional regions will be added following the pilot phase later this year.
Trust Circle Models
To support the diverse needs of GTIA members, Trust Circles are delivered through two purpose-built models that foster trust, learning and meaningful peer connection:
- ITSP Trust Circles take a different approach by anchoring benchmarking and peer engagement in member-defined trust metrics, security-first collaboration, industry-recognized resources and a member-first approach.
- Specialized Trust Cricles are formed based on a specific focus (vertical, women-led, AI-first, etc.) These circles take a similar approach to the ITSP Trust Circles, though security-specific aspects may or may not apply.

How GTIA Trust Circles Are Different
GTIA Trust Circles focus on trust, self-definition, security and shared growth.
1. Trust-Centered Benchmarking
Our benchmarking centers on trust, resilience and growth—not ego metrics—providing you with real insights that move the needle.
What makes our model unique:
- Member-defined trust metrics
- Operational resilience indicators
- Security and trust posture benchmarking
- Best-practice adoption score
- Growth-focused performance metrics
2. Security-First Collaboration
Cybersecurity is not an occasional topic, it's an always topic. GTIA makes it foundational by integrating live intelligence and security maturity into every meeting. The result: More informed discussions, stronger safeguards and peers who help you stay ahead of real‑world threats—not just talk about them.
Our security-first advantages:
- Real-time threat insights
- Security maturity benchmarking
- Anonymous incident case reviews
- Cyber risk rating tracking
