At The Provider Forum on Data Centers & Cloud Services Infrastructure (East), in Washington DC, on June 9, 2016, Digital Edge’s own, Michael Petrov participated as a panelist for the IMN’s Cloud Service Provider CEO Panel.

This high quality panel was moderated by Kemal Hawa, a Shareholder from Greenberg Traurig, LLP.

The audience was engaged and excited to hears this panels answers to questions like:

• “What are you doing to remain competitive in a market dominated by a few 800 pound gorillas? Are you specializing? Will there continue to be opportunities for mid-market providers? How do you see your business model evolving?”
• “Is a national scale needed today? How are you building out your ecosystem? What are your growth strategies? Where do you see untapped opportunities? What do you look for in a partner?”
• “How are end-user needs/expectations evolving? How are you meeting these? What does it take to stand out from the crowd in Cloud services marketing, sales and delivery today?”
• “Cyber security and risk management: How are you protecting your clients’ data? How are you managing these costs? What is the future of security in the Cloud?”

This panel was a big success! Great Job Mike!
