A unique opportunity to be seated with 50+ Channel Partners that are coming to learn from techpartner.news about all things security. Tables hosted by cyber security vendors that will lead relevant conversations.

Join Publishing Director Velvet-Belle Templeman and technology partners to discuss the latest developments for cybersecurity providers. 

Topics at Channel Meets: Security 2026

Cloud Security

The 2030 Cyber Partner

 

How MSSPs and cyber tech partners are likely to evolve over the coming years, and the broad forces driving that change, looking at shifts in service models, skills and sale, as well as how partners may seek to differentiate as security becomes more operational and business critical.

 
Digital Identity

National AI Plan and Privacy Act Changes

How emerging policy, regulation and AI adoption are shaping security demand in the channel. Focuses on the role partners can play in helping customers respond to changing expectations around data, risk and accountability, alongside the opportunities and constraints created by regulatory change.

 
Compliance

Selling Cyber in 2026: A Pulse Check

A high level snapshot of current conditions for selling security products and services. It examines how buyers are approaching security decisions, how partners are adapting their go to market approaches, and the commercial pressures influencing how security is positioned and sold.

Event Format

The evening will involve three sessions with partners seated at tables, hosted by sponsors. 

We begin by presenting an updated view of the cybersecurity landscape in 2025. 

Then we will have three sessions focusing on a different cybersecurity topic. In each session: 

  • Fireside chat with a partner about the topic  
  • 10min roundtable discussion about the same topic. 
  • Panel discussion to share key takeaways from their tables’ conversation  

The great advantage of this format is the opportunity for sponsors to take part in meaningful, free-flowing security discussions with channel partners. Listen, engage and discover where your organisation fits in best with the partners in the room.
