Launched in 2022, the Technology Advisor 101 (TA 101)  is the channel’s first recognition of people leading the agent model into the future.

This vendor- and distributor-agnostic list spotlights top leaders in the agent channel who have demonstrated their commitment to business success, customer experience and thought leadership. The TA 101 is a comprehensive initiative that includes a published list, a special awards ceremony to honor the organizations and individuals selected, an agent advisory board and new research. Check out Part 1 and Part 2 of the inaugural list.

Since 2014 the Circle of Excellence program has recognized ICT channel leaders who are helping their partners create business value for customers. The Circle of Excellence honors executives for their vision, innovation and advocacy of the indirect channel during a time of transition and convergence.

Circle of Excellence winners are selected by Channel Futures editors.

The DE&I 101 recognizes individuals from diverse and multicultural backgrounds who are driving diversity, equity and inclusion in the information and communications technology channel through their words, actions and leadership.

This list is intended to raise the visibility of people who are truly at the center of change in the industry. These individuals are propelling their organizations forward when it comes to innovation, business growth and customer/supplier connections.

The DE&I 101 is a list, not a ranking. The application for 2023 is closed.

You can self-nominate or nominate someone you know in the channel who deserves to be recognized for their DE&I work. We only need one application per nominee, but you’re welcome to nominate as many people as you’d like.
