AVANT CEO and Co-founder Ian Kieninger Named 2022 Channel Influencer by Channel Futures

February 23, 2022 — CHICAGO — AVANT Communications (“AVANT”), a platform for IT decision-making and the nation’s premier distributor for next-generation technology, announced that CEO and co-founder Ian Kieninger is one of a select group of leaders who have been named 2022 Channel Futures Channel Influencer Award winners.

Channel Futures recognizes Ian as one of just 50 channel leaders whose influence helps guide the information and communications (ICT) indirect sales channel in 2022. These awards have recognized the people, technologies, trends, and organizations expected to shape the channel in the next year. In 2022, Channel Futures chose to solely focus on those individuals who are agents of change. They expand the list this year from 10 to 50 honorees. We at AVANT couldn’t be prouder of Ian and his accomplishments, which earned him a well-deserved spot on this list.

“Our editorial team is on top of what’s going on in the channel every day,” said Craig Galbraith, editorial director for Channel Futures. “Certain individuals stand out for the impact they have on the channel with their thoughts, actions and words. This exclusive lineup of leaders represents the entire channel. It’s a diverse group that includes key decision-makers from top vendors as well as technology solutions brokerages and traditional tech distributors. These honorees have demonstrated dedication to the channel and a willingness and ability to inform and inspire the entire community.”

Ian and his fellow Channel Influencers will be honored at the Channel Partners Conference and Expo, April 11-13, at the Venetian Resort & Expo in Las Vegas. We encourage you to join us at Channel Partners and to take part in the many AVANT-powered events happening throughout the week!
