4
TD SYNNEX recently hosted over 2,000 attendees at its annual Vendor Summit and Inspire conferences in Greenville, South Carolina, to explore how people shape impact across the technology ecosystem. The event highlighted innovative technologies reshaping the market, including robotics, space technology and advancements in high-growth areas like AI, cybersecurity and cloud solutions. However, technology alone does not create impact. It is the specialized expertise, trusted relationships and deep understanding of end customers’ business goals that transform innovation into meaningful outcomes.
TD SYNNEX welcomed a number of industry journalists and podcasters onsite to experience the action firsthand. Their coverage captures the biggest announcements, key conversations and standout moments from the event. Explore their perspectives below!
Orchestrator for the Intelligent Era
Reyna Thompson, President, North America, kicked off Inspire with a powerful keynote where she described how the role of distribution continues to evolve alongside growing technological complexity and changing customer expectations. While distribution has long helped partners access technology, services and expertise, today’s market demands something more: the ability to bring together solutions, ecosystems and capabilities in ways that remove friction and drive measurable business outcomes.
As Thompson explained, orchestration means helping partners anticipate what’s next, simplifying the path to adoption and accelerating results for customers. Whether uncovering opportunities through data and AI, enabling emerging technologies like robotics, or connecting the right combination of vendors, services and expertise, orchestration is about helping partners navigate complexity and create value faster.

Paying the AI Price
As AI adoption accelerates, organizations are discovering that success is not only about access to technology. Managing costs, governance and long-term scalability are becoming equally important.
TD SYNNEX addressed that challenge with the introduction of
FinOps Fusion
, a new offering designed to help partners manage the cost of AI consumption across cloud and core infrastructure environments. As part of Destination AI™, FinOps Fusion gives partners greater visibility into AI token usage, helping identify inefficiencies, optimize spending and establish governance practices that support sustainable AI deployments.
CRN
highlighted the announcement in its coverage of Inspire, noting TD SYNNEX’s efforts to help partners tackle one of AI’s growing challenges: unexpected and difficult-to-manage consumption costs.
“I believe [partners are] going to be able to turn this into a managed practice, which many have done with traditional FinOps. But now, as we fuse together on-premises, the cloud and AI, I believe it becomes a lot more meaningful. So there’s a lot of different ways for our partners to monetize this.”
-Francisco Criado, SVP, Security, Cloud & AI

Putting AI to Work Where You Work
While helping partners manage AI spend is one part of the equation, TD SYNNEX is also focused on helping partners use AI to transform the way they operate.
At Inspire,
new agentic AI capabilities in PartnerFirst were unveiled
, designed to help partners spend less time navigating systems and more time serving customers and growing their business. The new capabilities introduce AI-powered assistance across common workflows, from identifying opportunities and lifecycle coaching to reporting and operational tasks.
The announcement generated coverage in both CRN and Channel Dive, which spotlighted how TD SYNNEX is embedding AI directly into the partner experience.
Speaking with
Channel Dive
, Nate Herz, regional CIO for North America at TD SYNNEX, explained how agentic AI can augment the work partners do every day:
“It’s using AI to do what a solution architect or what a presales person would do,” Herz said. “At the reseller level, folks are needing to manage quotes, orders, subscriptions and other specific workflows that PartnerFirst can now automate.”

In
CRN’s
coverage, Herz emphasized the broader opportunity AI presents for the channel ecosystem:
“I think the power of the channel lies in the way that we all work together, and we view AI as a catalyst to transform the way that we work and to really improve the way the technology is delivered to the world.”

Exploring What’s Next in (Space) Tech
Beyond helping partners optimize and operationalize their businesses today, Inspire also looked ahead to tomorrow’s opportunities.
TD SYNNEX announced a new Space Tech Initiative in North America
, designed to help reseller and vendor partners identify, pursue and scale opportunities in the rapidly expanding space economy. Through investments in expertise, partnerships, education and ecosystem development, the initiative connects partners to emerging opportunities while helping build the relationships and capabilities needed to succeed in a new market.
