At no time was that more evident than at the 2011 Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference (WPC) in Los Angelesen-USTelligent Evolution Platform Developer Build (Build: 5.6.50428.7875)http://blogs.technet.com/b/msuspartner/archive/2011/08/10/partnering-with-precision-my-recap-of-wpc.aspx#3446632Thu, 11 Aug 2011 23:54:03 GMTd5e57398-b9ef-4490-9955-07cbb4e4a80d:3446632Kelvin Kirby<p>Hi Jenni, I just wanted to point out that the Day of Giving was also benefitting the Charity OneXOne, not just the Boys &amp; Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) and the Magic Johnson Foundation; &nbsp;OneXOne do some amazing work and were the Charity supported by teh Day of Givings main sponsor IAMCP (International Association of Microsoft Channel Partners) - www.iamcp.org. &nbsp; &nbsp;All three of course are very worthy causes, but as an enthusiastic advocate &nbsp;(and IAMCP International Board member), I couldn&#39;t let it pass without correcting the omission. =) &nbsp; Hope you don&#39;t mind ? ... =)</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.technet.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=3446632" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.technet.com/b/msuspartner/archive/2011/08/10/partnering-with-precision-my-recap-of-wpc.aspx#3446333Wed, 10 Aug 2011 18:05:08 GMTd5e57398-b9ef-4490-9955-07cbb4e4a80d:3446333Christian Buckley<p>I was impressed by thye shift in focus around the WPC Connect this year -- yes, it was there in the past, but there seemed to be much more emphasis on driving people toward Connect and...well, connecting. Excellent event for my company (Axceler) to develop relationships. We signed several new partnership agreements because of this event (a couple right from the exhibition floor), and were able to sit and talk with many existing partners face to face, as well as interact with key Microsoft executives. WPC is a must-attend event.</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.technet.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=3446333" width="1" height="1">
