XChange Asia is ready to host partners in Southeast Asia

The inaugural XChange Asia takes place on May 11^th in Singapore.

The inaugural XChange Asia will be taking place in Singapore in just under two months. The event, which brings together vendors and partners to not just network but also understand the trends that are shaping the channel ecosystem in the region.

CRN Asia was recently at XChange UK in Birmingham where nearly 70 partners from the UK channel ecosystem attended the event to listen to vendors present and pitch the opportunities to partner and be successful together. Vendors that have taken part in XChange events find the pitching exercises to be promising as they are also able to get direct feedback from partners and what they would like to see more.

The boardroom style event will see partners broken into groups and placed in a boardroom which will be moderated by advisory board members. Vendors will then get the opportunity to pitch to these boardrooms their latest innovations as well as incentive and pricing options for partners that choose to work with them.

Partners who attended the event shared with CRN Asia that they really enjoyed the networking experience with their fellow peers in the industry. Partners were also enthusiastic by the presentation and sharing sessions by vendors, not only in the boardroom but also during the keynote sessions throughout the day.

For vendors, the partners that attended proved to be a very interesting bunch. Vendors shared that most of the partners had lots of questions about products and were also curious about how some products differ from what other vendors are offering. Overall, vendors felt that the partners that attended XChange UK were eager to get the ball rolling as many of them foresee many opportunities and challenges with customers in this AI era.

Interestingly, most of the challenges and opportunities faced by partners in the UK are similar to those that partners in the Asian region are experiencing as well. For example, how can partners help customers get the most out of their AI investments and how can partners help customers consolidate yet have the best cybersecurity capabilities are among the key areas being discussed in the six boardrooms at the summit.

This exact experience will be available for partners and vendors in Asia this year as Xchange Asia will be taking place in Singapore on May 11^th. This one day event will bring together a curated number of partners from around Southeast Asia to Singapore to listen to vendors share their products and also opportunities to grow the business with them.

Spots are filling up but there are still opportunities for vendors and partners to be part of XChange Asia. For more information about the event, click here.
