The North America Services Division of Ingram Micro Inc. has announced the opening of registration for its fourth annual Cloud Summit taking place April 8 – April 10 at the JW Marriot Desert Ridge Resort in Phoenix. Channel partners in the U.S. and Canada can register here for the Ingram Micro 2013 Cloud Summit. #IMCloud2013
Themed “All Sky. No Limit.,” the Ingram Micro Cloud Summit will have an estimated attendance of more than 800 channel partners and many of the IT industry’s top vendors. Capt. James Lovell, commander of NASA’s Apollo 13 mission, will serve as the event keynote and will share his story and offer insights on how challenge is the impetus for innovation.
The three-day partner event will be led by Reneé Bergeron, vice president of Managed Services and Cloud Computing for Ingram Micro North America. Throughout the event Bergeron will provide insight into Ingram Micro’s cloud strategy, discuss the market dynamics, and clearly define the business opportunities, challenges, and solutions surrounding cloud computing.
To demonstrate the success Ingram Micro partners are achieving with cloud services, several MSPs will share their cloud success stories at the Summit – on stage, in breakouts, and alongside Ingram Micro executives – and discuss how Ingram Micro is empowering them to expand their business horizons, develop sales tactics, and grow more profitability.
Attendees will also choose from dozens of breakout sessions and presentations delivered by Ingram Micro executives, as well as high-performance MSPs and cloud-focused vendor partners. Business development and education tracks will focus on sales best practices, financial modeling, marketing, and bundling cloud solutions to create recurring revenue opportunities.
Additionally, the Technology Solution Fair will provide an opportunity for partners to explore the offerings of the Ingram Micro Cloud Marketplace and familiarize themselves with the varied cloud services and vendor solutions available.
