Earlier today, we virtually hosted our annual Fivetran Partner Summit, held in conjunction with the Modern Stack Conference, which officially kicks off for two days beginning tomorrow. The Summit was an opportunity to thank our trusted partners, who accelerate time to value for our customers daily, and look ahead to future possibilities.
It goes without saying that Fivetran would not be growing as we are today without our SI and tech alliance partners. As Logan Welly, our VP of Alliances, put it at the Summit:
Partners are built into the DNA at Fivetran — we do not succeed as a business without our fantastic partners. Our partners are all as customer-obsessed as we are and we all share a common goal — to evangelize the modern data stack and create the best customer experience possible by doing so. Thank you to every Fivetran partner for your amazing contribution to this mission.
This year, to honor the critical role our partners play in our success, we introduced the Fivetran partner awards. We recognized partners who went above and beyond in their contributions to our ecosystem. The awards fall into two categories: Tech Alliances Awards and SI Partner Awards.
Without further ado, here are the winners — and their acceptance speeches!
