"With so much information out there," said Mark Crall, President Tech Care Team, a solution provider based in Charlotte, North Carolina, "you need a respected educational resource and MSP Partners is the key. For $99 there is no better value. The information we gained has been invaluable to the success of our business."

"2007 was an amazing start up year for MSP Partners with more than 2000 solution providers participating in our educational programs," said Jim Hamilton, executive director of MSP Partners. "2008 will build on this success with greatly expanded content and many new members. One exciting new feature this year will be the first independent large scale virtual tradeshow for managed services. We expect many thousands of attendees, as solution providers look for proven solutions to help them launch and expand their managed services programs."

MSP Partners explosive growth since its launch in March 2007 has confirmed the need for independent vendor-supported education for solution providers (http://www.msppartners.com) considering managed services. Based on demand from solution providers around the world to learn how to participate in managed services, MSP Partners took the program to the UK, winning Best New Channel Initiative Award from CompTIA Breakaway UK 2007.
