In his Dell EMC World Global Partner Summit keynote yesterday, John Byrne praised the “powerful and amazing” partner community of Dell EMC.
“You are everything to us. You are the reason why the channel business exists. My team and I will continue to work our hardest to earn your continued trust and business. That is job number one.”
Byrne reinforced the message of one team, of Dell EMC actively seeking input from our channel partners to help build a world-class partner program. A program based on the collective voice of this one extraordinary team.
Separately, both Dell and EMC have made “huge progress in the channel,” with the channel representing more than 60 percent of EMC’s business and 40 percent of Dell’s. And today, we stand on the brink of an extraordinary opportunity … An opportunity for both Dell EMC and our channel partners to attack the market, and to win.
“Your strengths are our strengths, and our strengths are your strengths.”
In support of the great strength of the Dell EMC channel, the Global Partner Summit keynote session concluded with a celebration of the extraordinary achievements of our global partners: the Dell EMC 2016 Partner Awards.
Congratulations to all of the extraordinary Dell EMC 2016 Partner Award winners!
