Over the past week we held our 2025 Global Partner Kick-off, where 207 attendees from more than 80 partner companies helping us to address over 70 geographical markets were in attendance. Aligned with this year’s theme of “Elevate: Take It to the Next Level,” we covered the latest market trends, Infinera strategy, our investments to evolve and grow our partner program and marketing initiatives, and new opportunities to address jointly with our go-to-market partners across regions. We had a record year in channel! We are especially proud that we doubled our partner-initiated, partner-led business in 2024. We’d like to thank our partners for their contributions. We are truly excited to have significant market opportunities ahead of us in 2025, because we understand what is imperative to our joint customers and have never been better equipped to meet these opportunities and respond to our customers’ needs. Congratulations to three Infinera partners who were awarded for their outstanding 2024 contributions and collaboration in helping our customers meet their business goals: -2024 Americas Partner of the Year: @Carahsoft -2024 APAC Partner of the Year: @NEC -2024 EMEA Partner of the Year: Itectra
