Commenting on the award, Mike Potter said: ‘It’s a great honour to be named as an IBM Champion for 2020. IBM Champions are enthusiasts and advocates who support and mentor others to help them get the most out of IBM software, solutions, and services.

‘It recognises that we are committed to supporting IBM Partners at the highest level. It gives us access to IBM subject matter experts and other IBM Champions and partners.
If one of our customers is struggling with a complex implementation of IBM Storage or Power systems, for example, I will be able to reach into the Champion community to see if anyone else has experienced similar challenges. By working together, we can find the right answers.’ Andy Brown, Technical Services Director, TD SYNNEX Advanced Solutions, said that as well as Mike’s own technical prowess, the award recognises the pedigree of the whole TD SYNNEX IBM team.
‘This is a great achievement that has a wider significance in the technical community. It enhances our credibility and demonstrates how TD SYNNEX can really make a difference for IBM partners as a preferred distribution partner. Having quality technical salespeople, especially those who have been endorsed by the vendor in this way, is a great asset to the team and a huge accomplishment by Mike personally.’
