  • How Energy Management is the Next Greenfield Opportunity
    Feb 10 2026

    As AI workloads expand, data centers multiply, and everything stays perpetually plugged in, electricity has become a limiting factor for digital growth rather than a passive utility. Aging power grids, rising costs, and infrastructure constraints are colliding with unprecedented demand, pushing energy management into the core of IT strategy. For the channel, this convergence of power, IoT, and infrastructure represents a new growth frontier — one where managing, optimizing, and securing energy is as critical as managing networks or cloud workloads. Vince Bradley, the CEO and founder of Abundant IoT, joins Larry Walsh on Changing Channels to discuss the growing opportunity of energy management in the IT channel.

  • Connecting the Dots on Channel Attribution
    Jan 13 2026

    The channel is widely regarded as the most effective way for technology vendors to cover the total addressable market, enabling broader customer reach, deeper penetration into specialized segments, and more profitable growth. Yet persistent doubt remains—from boardrooms to field sales—about the true contribution of partners. That skepticism is rarely philosophical; it is rooted in attribution. When vendors lack clear, agreed-upon methods for measuring impact, linking partner activity to outcomes, and crediting success, the value of the channel becomes difficult to defend. In this episode of Changing Channels, Larry Walsh is joined by Joe Sykora, CEO of Coro Cybersecurity, and Frank Rauch to examine why attribution remains one of the channel’s most enduring—and consequential—challenges.

  • ServiceNow Redefines Partnering With AI Fluidity
    Oct 28 2025

    Artificial intelligence is radically transforming how businesses and individuals operate, eliminating mundane tasks, driving operational efficiency, and unlocking new sources of value. In the technology channel, AI is reshaping the go-to-market relationship between vendors and partners by automating processes, improving collaboration, and introducing new products and services that help offset the effects of commoditization. Partners are under pressure to find new accretive and attached offerings to sustain profitability and growth, and few companies are responding to this opportunity as aggressively as ServiceNow. The company has evolved from embedding AI into its platform to incorporating it across its partner management systems and integrating AI agents from other vendors to expand its value proposition. ServiceNow’s channel organization is using AI as a guiding principle, rethinking engagement models, redefining partner roles, and even mandating that every member of its partner team be fluent in AI concepts and capabilities. Michael Park, senior vice president of global partnerships and channels at ServiceNow, joins Larry Walsh to talk about what it means to have AI fluidity in the channel.
