Commitment to ESG goals underscored at Vertiv Asia Channel Summit.
Vertiv held the Asia Channel Summit 2023 to focus on energy-efficient data centre infrastructure solutions that support customers’ sustainability strategies.
Hosted in Bali with the theme Experience Vertiv: Technology Through Impact Solutions, the summit outlined Vertiv’s wide range of ESG data centre and IT solutions to more than 200 attendees from across Asia.
“This year, we took the Asia Channel Summit as an opportunity to recognise and connect with all our partners in the region while helping them experience how Vertiv creates long-term, positive impact on businesses, society and the environment.
“Our partners play a crucial role in expanding the reach of Vertiv solutions, which help companies achieve their sustainability goals regarding energy and water efficiency,” said Daniel Sim, Senior Director for Channel Business at Vertiv Asia.
A highlight of the plenary session was a key partner presentation on how collaboration can drive leading-edge technologies and business growth to end customers.
Jacinta Quah, vice president, Infrastructure Solutions Group at Dell Technologies, shared with the delegates how Vertiv solutions contributed to the success of its data centre project for a licensed wealth management company.
“The symbiotic partnership with Vertiv and the Dell relationship with the customer and partner was the key winning point,” said Quah.
The delegates also had a tour at the Vertiv Experience Center situated in the event premises to discover more about the latest Vertiv offerings, including power management solutions, rack UPS, IT monitoring solutions, thermal management solutions, and integrated solutions like Vertiv SmartCabinet, Vertiv SmartRow 2 and Vertiv SmartAisle 3.
During the gala dinner, thirty-six outstanding partners were recognised for their significant sales and business development achievements in 2022.
Emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), are expected to drive data centre growth and influence design deployments for current and future facilities, Sim said in his partners’ address.
“AI and data are the future. The next wave of digital transformation is going to involve all of us. Vertiv will be and continue to be the key enablers of this transformation and we invite our partners to be part of this journey,” he said.
Partners recognised the event as a ‘great learning experience’ given the market dynamics in the region.
David Dempsey, Regional Sales Manager from Natural Power Solutions, said: “We gained some valuable perspectives from fellow partners, distributors and Vertiv representatives across Asia, providing us with insights into the future of the industry.
“The buzz around AI and ESG discussions was inspiring, as we see these game-changers shaping our industry’s growth in the coming years.”
