Grant Amos, general manager MEA region at Actifio gives an overview about the company and discusses their participation at Gartner Symposium/ITxpo in Dubai
Your claim to fame has been radically simple, can you please explain what is so radical and simple about Actifio?
Actifio takes a single golden copy from production data and from this provides an unlimited amount of virtual copies for all and any use cases. Traditional use cases such as backup, disaster recovery, test and development, analytics and many more can now be served via virtual copies of a single golden physical copy.
How different Middle Eastern markets are from mature markets like US or Europe?
We consider the Middle East in fact as a mature and very modern market, driven by innovation and ready to adopt latest technology to simplify and improve people’s life and business economics.
What is the significance of Gartner Symposium/ITxpo 2015 for Actifio?
We believe the Gartner Symposium/ITxpo in Dubai provides us an platform with a right gathering to meet senior executives from various industries and segments from across the Middle East. They all come together to learn about latest technology developments, engage, network and find new opportunities.
What is your go-to-market strategy for this region?
Actifio is a channel oriented company and is committed to its two-tier channel model. We appreciate the competence and experience of our channel partners in the region and support them wherever we can, for mutual success.
