Chairs for Channel Live 2023
Larato is delighted to announce we have agreed to chair both theatres for Channel Live 2023 in Birmingham. As business development experts with a specialism in ICT, we have been attending this event since 2006. During that time, we have benefited from new business opportunities, invaluable ICT news and enhanced industry relationships. Connections we made in the early days have grown into long-term customers or friends; equally, insights and forecasts we have heard from specialists (some our own!) have become a sector reality.
It is no secret that Channel Live is the largest ICT channel event in the UK. Last year saw 1,715 attendees and 71 expert speakers. This year will see more resellers, operators and MSPs connecting with vendors, distributors, and providers to ensure a profitable year ahead and to learn about key industry trends, opportunities, and challenges.
Our role as event chairs will be to support and guide the wealth of great speakers and panels presenting and discussing key topics to visitors. We plan to talk more about the speakers, intelligence and insights that attendees can benefit from over the coming months. As a focussed channel event in which all the sessions are relevant and valuable, there is usually quite a bit of debate about which sessions to attend. To help with this both chairs – Founder Dr Lucy Green and COO David Bailey – will be reminding you about the topics being covered in their theatre as the event draws nearer. Do let us know if you have any specific question you would like a panel to answer.
One of our focuses this year is to use our market intelligence platform – Inside Track – to develop region-specific data and insights and we are delighted to announce that we are busy preparing a report on the West Midlands ready for the event.
We accept we are likely biased, but we are passionate about the channel and the value it can deliver to the UK economy.
Continuously innovating, evolving, and adapting, it is full of people who can thrive in an environment which changes and adapts at great pace, helping businesses in nearly all other sectors to work more flexibly, efficiently and securely. Channel Live sees many of those people come together to one great location to form a hub of business activity and shared knowledge. We hope to see most of you there.
Please do let us know if you are attending. It is a great opportunity to build brand awareness and speak to relevant exhibitors.
