Business Applications is one of the fastest-growing sectors of Microsoft’s commercial business. We are seeing both SMB customers and global enterprises actively moving their business applications to the Microsoft Cloud. One of the results of this wave of digital transformation is the growth of the number of ISV partners and add-on applications. The panel will provide guidance on taking advantage of the lucrative but complex relationships ISVs are forming with systems integrator (SI) partners in the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform space.
Topics will include:

• Initial contact – building the initial relationship
• Getting to know each other – understanding the SI’s business and ISV’s offering
• Getting serious – the partner agreement
• Working your first deal
• Building a long-term, high-touch, high-value relationship
