Decoding the ISV/VAR Relationship
Developing strong relationships with other Partners in the Microsoft Dynamics channel takes trust and sometimes, it just simply doesn't work out. There are, however, some tried and true ways to find the right Partners that match your strategic goals AND to build mutually beneficial Partnerships...we have a panel of ISVs and VARs to prove it! In addition to a 30 minute panel undergoing a "marriage counseling" of sorts, we'll also have an industry expert share tactical tips and best practices on cracking the ISV and VAR code. It's possible, and by attending this 90-minute session at PreGAME to Summit, we know we can convince you.
