A branded marketing video for your business — no filming, ready to use — is included when IT service providers register for ChannelCon EMEA before 18 September.

Share your logo and contact details, and you'll receive a professional, produced video after the event to promote your IT or cybersecurity services and stay visible with prospects.

It comes alongside two days in London on 9–10 November, built around unbiased education, GTIA research, and the people driving the European IT channel forward.

The early-bird offer closes 18 September.

GTIA Board member Kimberly Penn founded Webtropolis more than three decades ago — the first woman-owned tech firm in Texas — and traces it all back to a child who could usually be found wandering the aisles of Radio Shack.

In her Q&A for our Board of Directors series, she talks about a career spanning technical auditing, drone consulting and entrepreneurship programmes, why she believes everyone comes from a nontraditional background in one way or another, and the Christmas wish that eventually led to her launching a drone consulting firm.

GTIA Board member John Scola, Global Vice President of Partner Ecosystem Success at SAP, has spent more than three decades working alongside partners—and traces his philosophy back to a single moment early in his career when he realised what a partner actually is.

In his Q&A for our Board of Directors series, he talks about why partner economics must drive every decision, why AI represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity for solution providers, and the one form of exercise he gave up many years ago.
