About
The world has changed dramatically since we last gathered in Prague in 2019, yet Ribbon partners have not only maintained their momentum, but also remain a critically important part of our business. We are excited to invite you to join us at the Ribbon EMEA Partner Summit 2022 taking place in Amsterdam on September 15, 2022.
A lot has been happening with Ribbon since we last met and we look forward to sharing key market insights and details on how our strategy and solution offerings have evolved. We hope to provide you, our valued partners, with a fresh perspective on the many opportunities available across the Unified Communications market and beyond.
Steve McCaffrey, Ribbon’s EVP, International Sales leading the EMEA and APAC regions will also be with us whom many of you are yet to meet. This will be a fantastic opportunity to get to know Steve and hear his unique global perspective, as one of our keynote speakers. Scroll down for the full agenda and speakers list!
Growing the addressable market for our partner community is fundamental to Ribbon’s strategy and of course to your success. Our leadership team looks forward to sharing our vision, strategy, and respective roadmaps with you at this year’s Partner Summit in the beautiful and exciting city of Amsterdam.
