Through Information Builders’ Global Partner Program, organizations will have the opportunity to monetize data and create new revenue streams by creating, building, and selling products and projects that tap into Information Builders’ highly scalable data management and analytics solutions. The Global Partner Program focuses on the important drivers to partner success:

• Economic Incentives: The program supports a wide variety of partner sales models – OEM, reseller, referral, and co-sell – offering incentives, discounts, referral fees, and deal registration that align with the unique business practices for each environment
• Partner Investment: Partners will have access to deal registration, evaluation and demo software, marketing assets, and enablement though Information Builders’ Global Partner Portal. A newly created Partner Success Framework provides role-based learning paths for partner sales, pre-sales, and post-sales professionals
• Partner Centricity: The Global Partner Program embraces partners as a complementary – not competing – sales channel with low barriers for entry and robust resources for organizations that wish to partner on a deeper level

The Global Partner Program already includes more than 400 organizations in its ecosystem, from solutions providers (such as OEM and value-added resellers) to service providers (such as system integrators, implementation, and advisory and consulting partners) and technology partners (such as ISVs and cloud vendors).
