4:00 PM - 4:45 PM
You lead partnerships in cybersecurity. You’ve signed partners and launched a program, but traction is slow.
In cybersecurity, the channel isn’t optional; it’s everything.
Yet, most programs stall due to misaligned incentives, unclear value, and overly complicated partner models.
Join us live on 30 October for a hands-on Q&A session with Ignacio Sbampato, advisor to European cybersecurity startups and former Chief Business Officer at ESET, where he helped scale revenue from €260M to €700M through partner-led growth.
This session is for Partnership and Channel Leaders who want to drive measurable results from their partner programs, without overhauling their entire approach.
