Dell announced this week that its 2024 Dell Technologies Partner Program is “investing in key growth areas aligned with customer priorities” by launching three new competencies: Data Science & AI Competency, Edge Solutions Competency and Sustainability & ESG Competency.
In announcing the program expansion, Denise Millard, senior vice president, global alliances and industries, partner strategy and programs at Dell, said, “this year GenAI will move from proof of concept to proof of productivity and is forecasted to be a US$158.6B opportunity for the channel ecosystem by 2028. GenAI is driven by data generated at the edge and hosted in the cloud. Partners that can demonstrate capability with AI, edge and multicloud solutions are the best positioned to capitalize on this market opportunity.”
She wrote in a blog that the Data Science & AI Competency and Edge Solutions Competency will validate partners’ expertise on Dell’s offerings.
The Sustainability & ESG Competency assists partners in addressing customer needs through sustainability training, enablement, tools, and resources, Millard said.
