deliver," says Bay. "By bringing together all five of our partner
communities and highly-specialized industry experts, we're able to
have hard-hitting discussions around business best practices,
advanced technologies and key markets and opportunities that will
ultimately empower our channel partners to work better, earn better
and serve better. IMOne strengthens Ingram Micro's position as an
indispensable business partner to the IT channel, and will
introduce and accelerate the cross-community networking and
cross-selling efforts happening across our North America partner
base."
Throughout the event, IMOne attendees will have the opportunity
to network and attend community-specific business-acumen and
educational offerings, as well as immerse themselves in key
verticals, specialty markets, and cutting-edge, high-margin
technology trends that are on the rise in 2014. The general
session, which will be shared across all five-communities and
technology categories, will include several member-to-member
