CenturyLink is looking for new partners in the EMEA region, expanding its global channel partner program there. The company offers a portfolio of solutions spanning networking, security, hybrid cloud and IT, voice and unified communications, and managed services and IT consulting. Its channels include VARs, direct, master and sub agents, system integrators, solution providers and consultants.
"The expansion of our Channel Partner Program gives our current North American Partner base direct access to resources in EMEA to better service customers, as well as allows CenturyLink to recruit new partners in the region who can take advantage of our extensive global solutions and network footprint," says CenturyLink's Craig Patterson.
Key elements of the Partner program include dedicated account teams and sales, marketing, development, operational and maintenance support throughout the entire customer life cycle. Access to the CenturyLink Partner Portal, which offers a repository of materials and trainings, aims to equip partners with the tools and resources to sell and deliver tailored customer solutions and help grow their business.
"Organisations are increasingly seeking providers that can help them transform their businesses through improved operational efficiency, IT agility and security. This market demand, together with the advantages provided by CenturyLink's Channel Partner Program, offers a compelling opportunity for Partners," said Bart van Aanholt, vice president, Continental Europe and MEA sales, CenturyLink. "Our expansion in EMEA combines innovative technologies with industry-leading, dedicated channel resources and a focus on providing an exceptional customer experience, to give Partners a strong platform for success."
