“Congratulations to Channel Mechanics and Allbound for this industry-defining union. Channel ecosystems are a key source, and often overlooked facet for growth, customer retention and enterprise dynamism. Channel Mechanics has, ever since our initial investment and as a director / board member, continued to impress me with their year-on-year growth and continuous customer success stories. The deal between Channel Mechanics and Allbound is another sign that the outlook for the market is much more positive and the opportunity for technology investing is now”.
