With the expo floor filling fast and pre-show registration up 20 percent year-over-year, CVxEXPO25 continues its momentum with the first peek of its unrivaled and widely acclaimed educational programming. Taking place Nov. 3-5 at the Marriott Renaissance Hotel & Conference Center in Glendale, Ariz., CVxEXPO is the Southwest’s largest and only independent channel event and expo.
Short on marketing PowerPoints and veiled sales pitches, we don’t waste your time with unnecessary hype music and montage videos. Rather, CVxEXPO25’s schedule of highly curated, high-value training and panel discussions promises to deliver a direct impact on the daily operations and bottom-line business of attending channel partners and MSPs. From AI, cybersecurity and next-gen connectivity to sales tactics, new revenue opportunities and leadership guidance, the two days of general and concurrent breakout sessions will dive deep into the most pressing topics and technologies in the communications and network services channel, led by a hand-picked cast of the brightest minds in the industry.
And similar to everything at the value-packed CVxEXPO25, all keynotes and general and breakout sessions are open to all registrants.
