The Channel Partners Conference & Expo is just a few days away, and it’s not too late to register to join more than 6,000 participants at what is by far the biggest show in the channel.
This year’s sponsors and exhibitors are offering a wide range of prizes you can win, ranging from cool technology – drones, iPads and levitating light bulbs, to name a few – to trip giveaways (Scottsdale sure is a nice place to visit in the winter).
Prizes aren’t your thing? We doubt that. But maybe you’re more interested in parties. Some of the biggest names in the channel will be living it up poolside or at Vegas’ top nightclubs — and they want you to join them.
In the gallery below, we’ve got the skinny on many of the prizes you can win and parties you can attend during your week in Sin City.
