Channel Debate: Are Aggregators Changing the Value Prop of Connectivity?

Many partners cringe at the name “telecom agent.” But as commoditization continues to hit the circuit world and some technology advisors eye solutions for contact center, cloud and cybersecurity, connectivity is still growing in its strategic importance. This panel of channel leaders discussed how partners are thinking about connectivity and where aggregators — many who call themselves communications solution providers — fit into those plays. This keynote featured Charlie Pagliazzo, Vice President, Channels at Granite, Margi Shaw, Chief Executive Officer at Nitel, Alastair Edwards, Chief Analyst at Canalys, and Max Silber, VP IoT & Mobility at MetTel.

Networking Events That Brought the Wow Factor

Nobody Throws a Channel Party Like We Do!

From the Converge party at Rockhouse, to our giant welcome party at Brooklyn Bowl, to our Pub Crawl on the Expo Floor, and everywhere in between, there was no shortage of opportunities for attendees to make the connections they needed in Vegas.

We kept it fun with exciting surprises and event features. Rockhouse party-goers were treated to a surprise Rock-and-Roll guest, and those who attended our big welcome party at Brooklyn Bowl got in on some friendly competition with two floors dedicated to bowling, and a live band that kept the dance floor moving and grooving.
