“It is truly an honor to be named one of CRN’s Top 100 Executives as a disruptor in the industry,” said Street. “I am proud of how we’ve been able to help channel partners transition to the cloud and build on their cloud monthly recurring revenue stream through the strategic enablement and best of breed products we provide. Our leadership at Pax8 has created an ecosystem where the best talent can thrive, innovate, and offer best-in-class partner support. This award reaffirms the impact Pax8 has made, and will continue to make, in the IT channel.”

CRN’s 2017 Top 100 Executives actively embody these qualities, providing the exemplary guidance their companies need to thrive in this new environment and move the IT channel forward.”
