Softcat’s Partner Forum returned on Thursday, bringing together more than 310 key industry players to celebrate successes and hear about Softcat’s plans for the coming year.
The day began with a welcome from Richard Wyn Griffith, Chief Commercial Officer (CCO), setting the tone for a packed agenda.
Attendees heard from CEO Graham Charlton and other senior leaders, who shared insights on Softcat’s performance, customer insights and evolving technology proposition. The event also featured a dynamic panel discussion led by Technology Director Dean Gardner, with contributions from key figures across the business.
CCO Richard said: “Our channel is a people business, so it was fantastic to see so many of our partners together in one place at this year’s Partner Forum. Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do at Softcat, and events like this are vital in shaping our shared future. We look forward to building on these partnerships and driving innovation together in the year ahead.”
