[Press Release] Vince Bradley Honored

Vince Bradley is among the 20 honorees on the first Channel Futures Channel Leaders list for cloud. The list recognizes these individuals as leaders who will determine the future of the channel as they redefine the partner-supplier relationship. 

The cloud channel leaders were selected based on their companies’ market share, growth potential, strength of partner network, scope of partner program and the individual’s impact on the partner ecosystem.

I’m honored to be chosen as a leader in distribution after launching eIoT in the channel,“ stated Bradley. “After over a decade in the energy space, and now with the launch of Abundant IoT, we are excited to see E.S.G. as a foundation for the Energy Journey. Coupled with the biggest up market ever and the inflation reduction act with over $100 billion in energy incentives, there has never been a better time to integrate the Energy Network with the IoT Network via energy efficient equipment, sensors and blockchain to create eIoT. Thank you Channel Futures for recognizing the impact this will have on the channel.”

This list is the sixth of seven that have been unveiled one by one through the end of this year. The first list, recognizing channel leaders in security, was unveiled on Oct. 18, channel leaders in networking and connectivity were named on Nov. 1, channel leaders in EMEA were named on Nov. 15, channel leaders in communications and collaboration were named on Nov. 22 and channel leaders in managed services were named on Dec. 15. The final list will honor senior partner executives in distribution. The lists will be produced on an annual basis and expanded into other industry segments. 

The channel leaders lists, compiled by Channel Futures editors, are intended to provide the partner ecosystem with an in-depth look at each industry segment and spotlight those individuals responsible for the strategic direction of partner-facing organizations. As the nature of the channel changes, partners are developing deep ties with numerous suppliers in each technology solution segment they support. The channel leaders lists will identify the executives with whom they should establish strong relationships going forward.  

“Channel Futures is once again demonstrating the incredible value it brings to its readers and the entire channel with by debuting the Channel Futures Leadership list. This list was compiled after months of tireless work by our media team to identify true leaders in the channel by industry category. It is critical for the partners who are focused on these markets to be able to understand who is making the investments and decisions in the channel that impact their future. We are proud to present these executives to the entire channel,” said Kelly Danziger, vice president and general manager, Informa Tech Channels.

“As the industry faces one of its most tumultuous periods, it is essential for channel partners to connect with the leaders of today’s strategic technology providers. These individuals are the ones who are guiding their organizations and partner ecosystems into the future with innovative thinking and industry-defining channel programs. Channel Futures has identified the individuals who are fueling a new wave of growth and solutions partners can bring to customers.” said Robert DeMarzo, vice president of content, Informa Tech Channels.
