This collaboration seeks to bolster Huawei Cloud’s channel presence by recruiting and enabling partners to meet the increasing demand for cloud migration, infrastructure modernization, and AI-driven solutions.
In a recent interview with Reseller Middle East, Adil Ali, General Manager of Hiperdist Gulf, and Salman Syed, Senior Channel Sales & Alliance Manager at Huawei Cloud Middle East, discussed the strategic implications of this partnership. They emphasized the importance of building a robust partner ecosystem to accelerate Huawei Cloud adoption across the region.
Strengthening Regional Cloud Capabilities
According to Ali, the partnership significantly enhances Hiperdist’s value proposition as a technology distributor in the Gulf region. “We bring established market knowledge and channel reach, while giving our partners access to a broader portfolio of cloud, data, and AI technologies,” he stated. The collaboration aims to combine Huawei Cloud’s innovative technology with Hiperdist’s regional expertise, facilitating partner onboarding, training, and market positioning.
Ali highlighted that the UAE represents a key growth market for the partnership, with opportunities extending across the Gulf region as cloud adoption accelerates. He noted that the demand for cloud services is driving the need for partners to develop and deliver solutions around cloud migration, data services, and AI technologies.
Building a Partner Ecosystem
