FROM THE EDITOR
Congratulations
Iam delighted to announce our Comms Business Awards nalists this month. Our awards are
continually held in the high regard and the sheer volume of entries we get signi es that the
market is as competitive as ever. We added some new categories this year to ensure we stay
current in an evolving market, its great to see them well supported.
I would like to thank all of our sponsors, especially our main sponsor Digital Wholesale
Solutions. ese awards couldn’t happen without the backing of the market and to see prominent
channel brands supporting the achievements of the market is brilliant .
As the entries came in this year we saw many new names appearing. Clearly innovation is still
alive and well in the Channel and the market is moving forwards at a pretty
good clip. e new companies coming to market are, or at least some of
them are, doing things di erently. ey are engaging businesses di erently
with new busniess models and o erings which will only help competition.
Speaking to CEO of Digital Wholesale Solutions Terry O'brien recently
I asked him what his thoughts were on the state of the Channel market.
His opinion was the Channel is winning more business than ever in
the small business sector which is something he believes will only
continue as partners continue to drive more value.
I am excited to be in the market right now, the changes
going on are great to see and will undoubtedly generate more
innovation in years to come. You can see all the nalists on
page 20, good luck to all those listed and I look forward to
seeing you all on the 20th June at the Lancaster where we will
reveal the winners
Enjoy the issue.
