Synnex China took part in the Canalys Channels Forum APAC in 2012, bringing over 50 channel partners and our own staff, from whom we received an overwhelmingly positive response. Canalys has shared a lot of very insightful trends and provided an opportunity for us and our partners to connect with a lot of world-renowned vendors' executive teams. We are glad to return as an official distributor in 2013. Nicky Lo, President and CEO, Synnex China
This event will allow us to reward our top partners and give them the opportunity to meet with those top vendors in one convenient location. We are looking forward to building on this forum for many years to come. Shailendra Gupta, President, Ingram Micro Asia Pacific
Last year’s event was refreshing and gave me many new ideas and perspective on how to operate my business. I wanted my channel partners to have the same opportunity as I had and so we are fully committed to making the APAC event a success. Narong Intanate, Group CEO, ECS Holdings Limited
To understand the future trends and what's going on. To see vendors' strategies and policies for the channels. Good opportunity to interact with APAC channels. Alex Wang, Chairman, Asgard System
My few interactions with other companies such as ourselves was a unique opportunity. It was good to see that we all share common issues and have a similar perspective. Venkata Durganadh Kota, Director, Locuz Enterprise Solutions
I get new perspective in running business... new opportunities... new challenges... new knowledge and great networking... Kristoforus, Business Development Manager, Nusantara Compnet
I was genuinely impressed by the entire event and it is a commendable act for Canalys for its debut APAC event. My congratulations to the entire Canalys team and its associated partners for pulling off this great feat. Pawan Khurana, CEO, Quantum
I have to congratulate you for this fantastic event. You have certainly hit the bull's eye with putting on such a channel-focused event. The caliber of vendor-reseller dialogue generated was outstanding, your idea of enhancing disti-partner relationships certainly worked for us. There has been a void in the events market for such an event. It was highly time efficient, rather than single vendor-centric conferences put on by the major vendors. Certainly looking forward to next year's event. Hanspeter Eiselt, COO, Network Neighbourhood
A valuable and informative conference. The analysis of market trends was credible and practical. Participating businesses can not only validate their business priorities but set new directions. Donna Adam, Marketing Manager, Express Data
Thank you very much for an excellent event. It was very informative and this will help us to take our business to next level in 2013. Dipak Shah, Business Head, Roshani
Congratulations to you and entire Canalys team for organizing such a grand and impressive channel partner event. Look forward to see you again in November 2013. Nihar Kapadia, Director, Entrust
The biggest benefit is to hear from an analyst focusing on the channel side of the business; Canalys' opinion sees the market from the channel's perspective and thus provides a diversity of opinions from the vendors. Kenneth Koh, Country General Manager, Avnet
The event is pleasant and more than our expectations. It's a perfect caliber and mixture of presenters, resellers and vendors. All aspects are to the liking of the partners. Overall the whole event it is well organized, polarized and fully a non-agnostic format. Mitradutta Mohapatra, Senior Director, Ingram Micro
