DENVER, Feb. 16, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pax8, the best place for IT professionals to buy cloud products, today announced it has been named a 2021 Channel Influencer Award winner for the third consecutive year by Channel Partners and Channel Futures.
"It is an honor to be recognized as a Channel Influencer for our commitment to educating and enabling the channel so they can be ready to capitalize on new market opportunities," said Ryan Walsh, Channel Chief and Chief Product Officer at Pax8. "As the IT channel continues to evolve, we are continually providing our partners with the latest technology advancements and enhanced cloud solutions. Over the last year, our strategy and deployment empowered partners with cloud management capabilities through Pax8 Pro, resources in events such as Mission Briefings and Bootcamps, and support required for enabling and properly securing their clients' remote office environments. Through our collaboration with partners and our leading-edge vendors, Pax8 is driving innovations and accelerating the channel's transformation."
The awards recognize the people, technologies, trends, and organizations that will shape the new channel in 2021. Pax8 was cited as one of the 25 organizations to watch for its role in mapping the new channel's direction.
“Channel Partners has a unique vantage point from which to identify the most influential people in the industry,” said Bobby DeMarzo, Vice President of Content, Informa Tech Channels Group. “These honorees are true channel advocates within their organizations, the industry, and among their peers. Influence can be measured in many ways, but we examine how these individuals and organizations carved out paths as thought leaders, helping to identify growth opportunities or accelerate the channel’s evolution. The influencers within the Channel Partners and Channel Futures communities are those with a true network that has a loyal, trusted following.”
“Our editorial team carefully examined the industry for individuals and organizations that are exerting true influence in the channel today,” said Craig Galbraith, Editorial Director, Channel Partners & Channel Futures. “Our criteria include how they helped move the telco and IT channel forward with their thoughts, actions, and words. We found the pandemic has redefined what influence means and how it is exerted. Not everyone can be an influencer. It takes courage and a point of view that makes partners, vendors, customers, and suppliers stop and think.”
All 50 of the 2021 winners are profiled in a digital publication available for download from the Channel Partners website.
