Datacentrix has been named by independent analyst company, Canalys, as the winner of its “Infrastructure Growth” award for the EMEA region.

The organisation received the accolade at the recent EMEA Canalys Channels Forum in Cannes, France.

The awards form part of Canalys’ exclusive Candefero global channel partner community, which provides the channel with an online forum to discuss pressing business issues, as well as an avenue to communicate with senior executives within vendor organisations. Member companies also gain access to high-quality, independent market intelligence, trends analysis and advice from Canalys.

These awards recognise high achievement by the region’s channel partners in particular areas. Winners were selected from the many nominations received by a panel of Canalys analysts, who took into consideration how each partner had made sustainable investments for the future, its performance, its demonstrated expertise and the resulting business value generated for its customers.

Says Canalys principal analyst Alastair Edwards: “It is always exciting to present the winners with their awards at our annual Channels Forum event. Every year the channel faces up to new challenges and opportunities, but with the continued pace of innovation and creative thinking, the industry continues to move forward. These awards prove that the EMEA region is no exception.”

“Datacentrix is delighted to be named as winner of the Canalys Infrastructure Growth award,” says Ahmed Mohamed, Datacentrix CEO. “This award recognises our continued commitment to and investment in complex solutions and services for the African market. The capability was built with the end goal in mind of assisting clients in navigating the ever-changing IT landscape.”
