Coffee with Craig and James Episode No. 113: Telarus, Cisco

The dog days of summer have arrived. So why not sit back with a cold glass of lemonade, and a Channel Futures podcast? We’ve got two of the biggest names in the channel — Telarus and Cisco.

Let’s start with Telarus, whose summer got off to a hot start with the acquisition of TCG. What does this move hold for the future of tech distribution and subsequent consolidation? James asked Telarus CEO Adam Edwards in a one-on-one interview.

After Telarus, James landed an interview with Cisco VP Alexandra Zagury. She describes how the company is going after the entire channel with a series of programs and new products.

Where was Craig, you ask? On vacation. Or just passing the hard work off to James.

Meantime, the guys will put a bow on the recently concluded Channel Partners Europe, Furthermore, they’ll offer up a preview of the upcoming MSP Summit in Orlando. We just happen to be colocating it with the brand-new Channel Partners Leadership Summit. You’ll learn about the event that has something for agents, VARs, MSPs and all partner types.
