2018 MSP 501 Now Open for Submissions!
The wait is finally over. We are now accepting applications for the 2018 edition of the MSP 501, the IT channel’s largest and most comprehensive ranking of leading managed service provider (MSP) organizations worldwide.
Now in its 11th year, the 2018 MSP 501 is brought to you by Channel Futures and our sister site, Channel Partners. The survey uses a unique data analysis that recognizes that not all revenue streams are created equally, weighing them according to how how well the applicant’s business strategy anticipates trends in the fast-evolving channel ecosystem.
Partners from around the globe will send in their applications in hopes of nabbing a spot on the list and one of the 501’s coveted special awards such as the Vanguard Award for the company that demonstrates thought leadership in terms of digital transformation; the Lifetime Achievement Award for an executive who has demonstrated commitment, perseverance, creativity and ingenuity over an entire career; the Newcomer Award, bestowed upon a first-time MSP 501er that is shaking things up; and more.
As in previous years, applicants will be required to provide 2017 financial results and revenue verification in the form of a statement from a certified financial professional. All data analysis will be done in-house by our parent company, Informa. Clarity Channel Advisors, which provided data management for the 501 in previous years, will offer additional analysis on a pro bono basis.
This year, the 501 winners will be honored at a special gala during the Channel Partners Conference and Expo held Oct. 9-12 in Philadelphia.
On March 13, join Kris Blackmon of Channel Futures, Will Ominsky of Clarity Channel Advisors and Mark Meller of SWK Technologies, our 2016 Vanguard Award winner, for a live webcast to hear details on how to apply to be included in the top 501 managed service providers worldwide.
