Aptum has been focusing on building out its partner ecosystem and as part of that journey we helped several executives share their stories and experience with the channel community. Specifically, we worked with the editors at eChannelNews to share milestones, company goals and career paths in technology from Aptum leaders.

Michael Stephens is Aptum’s vice president of partnerships and strategic alliances, bringing with him almost three decades of experience in sales and partner strategy. eChannelNews featured him as part of its Channel Chief series, speaking with Michael about how he started in the channel, the evolution of channel leadership, the importance of mentorship and his career path. Watch the interview here.

Following that interview, eChannelNews spoke with Patty Fisher, Aptum’s vice president of marketing, for its Women in Tech series. With more than 20 years of experience with well-known industry organizations, Patty recounted her professional journey, touching on the value of diverse perspectives in technology and the potential benefits AI can offer to different communities, particularly women. The conversation highlighted the importance of mentors and encouraging young women to pursue tech-focused careers. Patty also shared how Aptum is moving forward with a focus on next-generation MSPs.
