If You’re a Partner, Don’t Miss the Great Stuff at #ATM19!

By Jim Harold, Vice President of Channels

I’m counting the days to Atmosphere 2019 at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino. I love being able to spend so much time with our partners. It’s great to see partners and customers light up with ideas for new ways to deliver amazing digital experiences. And of course I’m looking forward to sunny 70-degree weather and hoping the house odds are in our favor.

Never been to ATM before? Here are five things partners must do:

  1. Mix and mingle with enterprise leaders. #ATM19 is our biggest event of the year. A record number of people are coming to Vegas – more than 3000 customers and partners. Learn alongside enterprise IT leaders and get real answers to real problems.
  2. See Aruba’s vision firsthand. The network edge must evolve to deliver amazing digital experiences that customers expect. Partners have a front-row seat to understanding the huge opportunity at the network edge—and get insights into our latest sales plays. You’ll see our latest products in action, and get new ideas to bring to your customers.
  3. Accelerate your sales cycle. Are you helping customers drive transformation through digital experiences? Many partners bring their customers, so they experience Aruba’s vision together. Customers learn from the successes and challenges of their peers and industry experts.
  4. Mingle with Aruba executives and industry leaders. Everywhere you go, you can share best practices with Aruba engineers, Airheads, MVPs and product development teams. It’s fun to poke around the Innovation Zone. You won’t only see our execs on stage—we like to walk around and meet our customers and partners. And the party on Wednesday will be awesome.
  5. Take your skills to the next level. Mastered mobility and networking and ready to grow your portfolio? Take a deeper dive into security, SD-Branch or network assurance. Fill your head with knowledge from breakout sessions, technical training and exclusive partner breakouts.

If that’s not enough to fill your days and nights, you can always check out the minus5° ice bar.

See you there!
