Nancy Hammervik, Senior Vice President, Events, Everything Channel, said, "Last week we brought solution providers and technology vendors together to learn, network and conduct business.  XChange Solution Provider provided attendees with key information on how to reboot their businesses after a challenging year and gave them a road map to follow for a strong 2010.  The success of our event demonstrates the critical importance of our industry and the great opportunity in the high tech sales channel."

  Event highlights include:

      comprehensive half-day Cloud Computing Bootcamp on the hottest and
      most pressing issues facing IT integrators and their vendor partners.
  --  The 2010 CRN Channel Champions and XChange XCellence Awards events
      took place on March 10.  The 20th annual CRN Channel Champions is one
      of the largest and broadest-based technology solution provider market
      studies in the industry and measures overall technology sellers'
      perceptions of vendor products and services.  The XChange XCellence
