TD SYNNEX unveils tech centre of excellence to fuel partner growth in AI

New resource hub aims to help partners embrace the rapid development of AI

TD SYNNEX has launched a technology centre of excellence (CoE) to accelerate its partners' ability to tackle complex digital transformation initiatives.

This new CoE provides a suite of offerings to expand out partners' business by helping them embrace the rapid rate of evolution within the industry to become a ‘partner of the future' that successfully integrates AI across cloud, cybersecurity, data and modern infrastructure.

According to the distributor's 2023 Direction of Technology report, the top five solutions partners plan to offer over the next two years are AI, security, hybrid cloud, modern infrastructure, and data analytics.

While AI is seeing the most significant jump, (625 per cent surge from the previous year's survey), TD SYNNEX sees the greatest opportunity for partners who are driving digital transformation not just through one category, but through the convergence of these high-growth technologies across security, modern infrastructure, cloud, data analytics and AI.

IDC predicts the digital transformation market will grow to $2.9tn by 2027. The CoE, which is initially launching in North America, helps to engage, transform and scale partners businesses, allowing them to fully participate in this rapidly growing market.

"As AI continues to rapidly transform the technology ecosystem, it is challenging our partners to diversify their portfolios, hone new skills and develop unique expertise," said Lisa McGarvey, VP of data, IoT and AI, North America at TD SYNNEX.

"We see the ‘partner of the future' as one who is ready for that challenge and understands how these technologies must be woven together. With the launch of the CoE, TD SYNNEX is well-equipped to transform our partners with differentiated value and services to compete in this ever-evolving market landscape."
