Nutanix, a provider of private cloud, hybrid and multi-cloud computing solutions, has announced that it successfully hosted its Middle East Partner Summit and Awards 2021 on the February 24th with the theme ‘Blaze New Trails’.
The virtual event saw attendance of over 250 channel partner executives across the region.
“At Nutanix, our success lies in the growth and achievements of our partner ecosystem. We want our partners to unlock their potential, taking leverage of our technology, training and tools to expand their reach. In doing so, we seek to help them ‘blaze their own trails’ for greater mutual success,” said Aaron White, Sales Director, METI, Nutanix.
Executives from Nutanix took attendees through the transformation that the company is undergoing and provided exciting updates, like news from the new CEO, highlights of year-end results and a recap of Nutanix’s Elevate Partner Programme. Partners were also educated about the ‘Test Drive’ initiative that enables customers to put Nutanix’s software to the test in a new and improved demo, that simulates building a private cloud to create a frictionless IT environment. To bring fun into the mix, a Kahoot Quiz was organised where winners took home exciting prizes.
After the summit, Nutanix presented awards to those partners in the Middle East that went the extra mile during the last year. The following are this year’s winners:

“We are delighted to have been able to re-connect and engage with our channel partners through the Partner Summit. I believe events like these create a solid foundation for growth as it not only cements relationships that we have with our existing partners, but also provides invaluable insights that enhance the knowledge base and skills of the partner community. We take this opportunity to congratulate all the partners who won awards and were recognised for their commitment to Nutanix business,” said White.
