D&H Distributing Hosts Its ‘2019 Technology Conference: Mid-Atlantic' June 5

D&H’s Largest Annual Trade Event of 2019 will Feature a Comprehensive “D&H Central” Hub Spotlighting Cloud Solutions, ProAV, Solutions & Services, DaaS, K-12, & More

D&H Distributing announces it will host its “2019 Technology Conference: Mid-Atlantic” on June 5, 2019 at the Hershey Lodge and Convention Center, Hershey, PA. This full-day event will feature seminar sessions from leading vendors including Lenovo, Microsoft, Intel, Cisco, HPI, and Brother, focusing on ProAV, digital signage, security, next-gen SMB solutions, business printing, the impending PC refresh, and much more.

The event welcomes a keynote speaker this year: Renowned market leader Matt Zielinski, president of Lenovo North America, Intelligent Devices Group. His presentation, “Beasts Unleashed – Success Together!” will explore how to help partners in the marketplace achieve success through superior customer experiences. In addition to vendor content, the conference agenda also features a cloud-focused discussion group and a ProAV session, both hosted by D&H. Registration opens at 8:30 a.m., presentations begin at 9:00 a.m., and the exhibit floor opens at 3:00 p.m.

The distributor expects close to 900 attendees at its largest trade event of the season. More than 75 D&H manufacturer partners will spotlight their most cutting-edge merchandise, from large-scale ProAV displays, to 3D printers and scanning solutions, to high-performance notebooks and mobility products, to next generation processors and powerful new WiFi solutions for the SMB marketplace.

The show’s seminar content will repeat on a rotating basis to make it easier for resellers and dealers to arrange their day as-needed. In addition, select seminar content will be streamed online to followers of D&H’s Facebook page.

D&H will conduct a series of customer engagement events during the conference, including a VAR Track, ASCII Elite, and other roundtables. These sessions have become a critical part of D&H’s training acumen, providing opportunities for D&H’s SMB reseller customer base to give feedback, share best practices information, and convene with both their peers and D&H executives.

“Our Technology Conferences have become living events that evolve on a regular basis, incorporating customer feedback and delivering the content and expertise our partners have been asking for,” said Jenn Walcott, vice president of marketing at D&H Distributing. “The objective is to create more exciting, immersive, and hands-on opportunities, allowing VARs and MSPs to engage face-to-face through activities, seminars, and exhibits. Yet we’ve also taken the initiative to reach out via social media and streaming to customers who can’t attend first-hand. As we increase our agenda and employ different content formats at these conferences, we extend our value proposition, helping resellers and MSPs to build an arsenal of tools to drive market success.”

D&H will give away 20 $100 American Express gift cards to attendees, plus one seminar winner in each session will receive a $50 American Express gift card. At the end of the event, one lucky attendee will receive a Grand Prize of a $500 American Express gift card.
