KUALA LUMPUR CHANNEL COLLABORATION SUMMIT 2019 www.tbsd.com.au/conference 2019 KUALA LUMPUR CHANNEL COLLABORATION SUMMIT 2019 The Kuala Lumpur 2019 Channel Collaboration Summit will be TBS Distribution’s 9th Channel conference and the third held overseas. Last years conference was held in Auckland New Zealand and was an outstanding success, so much so we’ve gone for the international flavour again this year. Held between the 9th and 12th of September this year we are holding the conference in Kuala Lumper, Malaysia. The hotel venue is the Sofitel KL Damansara. Last year we announced our Partner 2 Partner (P2P) collaboration channel program. This year we have changed the title to “The Channel Collaboration Summit” to better reflect the style and format that this years event will take. With the success we have had with P2P over year we will be showcasing some great case studies. Based on previous years, we can expect an attendance of 120 delegates comprising of 50 channel partner companies and 70-80 partner delegates. The balance will be made up of TBS Distribution, TBS Partner Services, Telstra management and of course our sponsors and presenters. As with previous conferences we’ve created an interesting format that we believe will provide for an exciting and rewarding week. For those familiar with our past conferences there is one big notable change. We have included a full morning of “Break out sessions” which will enable partners to have more in-depth discussions around new products and services.

Sit for some Indian snacks and a cup of sweet teh Tarik, local tea served with condensed milk, while observing the daily life in Little India. Watch as vendors sell bright garlands of marigolds and sari-clad women rush home with armfuls of fresh produce.
