 “It is a great honor to, yet again, be recognised as a strong EMEA partner to NetApp, says Paul Bates, Vice President of Portfolio & Technology at Proact.

“The combination of NetApp’s innovative technology and Proact’s customer centricity, technical knowledge and cloud service capabilities – are a fantastic combination to meet the market’s changing demands – something that is recognised of course through this award from NetApp,” Paul Bates continues.

“Our Data Fabric strategy and our solutions for cloud-connected flash and hybrid cloud infrastructures are key differentiators to meet the changing and growing demands from our customers. But without a doubt our partners help turn technology into innovation as we strive to support our joint customers as they develop and launch new cloud-enabled business models. This award is all about celebrating and recognising this,” says Kristian Kerr, Vice President Partners & Pathways EMEA at NetApp.
