The Emerging Vendor of the Year category recognizes new, rising technology suppliers six years old or younger that have helped channel partners build and grow a profitable business.
Winning the ‘Emerging Vendor’ category is a huge achievement and a testament to our incredible partners who started the journey with us as well as VAST’s channel team who brought our strategy to life. It is a strong acknowledgment of our commitment to building a channel-first company,” said Kate Goodwin, Director of Channel, International at VAST Data.
Over the past two years, VAST has strengthened its relationship with validated Alliance Partners and developed best-practice architectures for ransomware recovery, scalable data analytics, AI computing and more. These efforts allow VAST and VAST’s distributor partners to provide its resellers with a blueprint for the future of AI-powered computing that they can repeat across all of the enterprise IT community.
The award also spotlights VAST’s global expansion, validated by partner-led wins in the US, EMEA, and Asia Pacific. The company recently shared a business update, highlighting strong global growth metrics through the first half of 2022 and market share capture that is on pace at 58x the industry average over the past 2 years.
Innovation remains core to VAST’s mission and strategy and is central to its evolution from a data storage company to a data infrastructure company.
