Tina Gravel, Cyxtera‘s senior vice president of global channels and alliances, and member of the Channel Partners Business Advisory Board; Patrick Oborn, Telarus‘ co-founder and vice president of partner experience; and Rick Beckers, president of CloudTech1 and member of the Channel Partners Editorial Advisory Board, had plenty to say on the topic.
