Make your brand shine for the most motivated digital transformation audience in the world with our MSP Partner Offer!
The Managed Service Provider market is many-sided and complex. With increasing demand, multiplying workload requirements, and looming cyber threats for their clients, MSPS have to deliver super-reliable expertise in… well, just about everything. This means delivering services such as hosting, backup, AI, storage, and cybersecurity to the customers they have—while also figuring out how to win new customers in an increasingly competitive environment.
For MSPs that get it right, the payoff is massive: the global market for managed services was valued at $344 billion in 2024—and is forecast to surpass $657 billion in 2030. The digital transformation specialists taking advantage of this phenomenon have done so by first realizing that no service provider truly works alone: it’s all about building and growing an ecosystem of tools and partners to better serve their customers.
“Having such a diverse range of attendees from the different regions is really, really valuable; because you can really see the insights of what’s affecting one person compared to another person—and being able to tailor that from your organization’s perspective is really key.”
—Yvette Laister, International Field Marketing Group Manager (EMEA & APAC), ConnectWise
Where MSP Global comes into play
Since its launch in 2023, MSP GLOBAL immediately became the go-to festival for the digital transformation industry: MSPs could quickly and easily meet new suppliers and partners to create attractive and powerful service offerings. Meanwhile, corporate IT decision-makers found out about this gathering as well, seeing it as an easy way to meet a lot of new suppliers at once.
The exciting and celebratory environment—first at the Nürburgring race track and then at PortAventura theme park in Barcelona—brings a new dimension to this kind of B2B event: that’s why we call MSP GLOBAL a festival instead of a conference! Those who join us can drive greater ARPU—while everyone else is at risk of serious FOMO!
“The networking is great, and the fun activities— but there are also some very, very interesting talks onstage with real highlight speakers.”
—Patricia Hillebrand, Channel Manager, RNT Rausch
