2027 CRN Channel Chiefs Application: Australia

CRN - 2027 Channel Chiefs Application

The Channel Chiefs list identifies the channel executives who consistently defend, promote and execute effective channel partner programs and strategies. Those making the list will be chosen by CRN editors based on their track record of channel accomplishments, standing in the industry, dedication to the partner community and plans for driving future business innovation and channel growth.

Inclusion on the prestigious Channel Chiefs list recognises the commitment of the selected executives and their companies to current and prospective channel partners.

Please note that the Australia Channel Chiefs list is limited to executives with only Australian authority (not NA or Global). Those who manage APAC or APJ regions or similar will be considered for Australian and Asian Channel Chief lists.

If you manage an APAC/APJ role or similar, please apply to the region that you are based in. For example, if you an APAC leader based in Sydney, you will apply for Channel Chiefs Australia.

Please do not apply for both.
