  • Full-lifecycle growth engine: Ingram Micro’s end-to-end lifecycle support comprises business planning, demand generation, MDF, and MSP enablement—backed by dedicated sales and technical specialists, with expanded routes-to-market including hyperscaler marketplaces.

Juniper’s 2024 Partner of the Year Awards were celebrated as part of the JPA Program, which recognizes partners for their exceptional performance and impact in driving digital transformation for customers. Beyond recognition, the JPA empowers partners to build, sustain, and grow their Juniper practice with the tools and support needed to deliver next-generation, AI-native networking solutions.
