Channel Live Birmingham NEC – 12th-13th September 2017

A heads-up that there is a new trade event for IT and Technology companies – Channel Live Birmingham.

Taking place at the NEC in Birmingham on 12th-13th September 2017, Channel Live describes itself as “the UK’s only ICT trade specific conference, exhibition, thought leadership and networking event rolled into one.”

The event is organised by Comms Business magazine and is free to attend for Managed Service Providers (MSPs), dealers, resellers, Value Added Resellers (VARS), solution providers, consultants, system integrators, distributors, vendors, network providers and anyone else operating a Channel focussed business.

What Seminars are at Channel Live?

There are some interesting seminars taking place at Channel Live, including, on day one, “Who is eating your lunch?” — a panel session hosted by my friend, and noted MSP expert Adam Harris.

On day two, my friend Jay McBain, Principal Analyst at Forrester, will be talking about “Shadow Channels – Act now before you end up irrelevant”.
