Strengthening partner management in the Vidispine business unit of Arvato Systems

• Expansion and strengthening of partner activities
• Launch of a new program for channel partners

The Vidispine team at Arvato Systems is expanding its partner management support. Annika Kimpel joins the company to promote and expand existing partnerships and attract new companies for cooperation. Kimpel has explicitly developed a strategic approach for a new partner program for channel partners.

An essential task will still be to expand the collaboration between the Vidispine team and Arvato Systems‘ long-standing infrastructure partners, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, and Microsoft. The first joint activities are already on the agenda for 2023.

"I am excited to be a part of the Vidispine team at Arvato Systems. From personal experience, I know how important strong partnerships are, especially in a global, challenging environment. To overcome these challenges, having reliable partners by your side is an advantage. My goal is to promote our strengths even better in relation to those of our partners, to learn from each other, and to grow together," says Annika Kimpel.

The 30-year-old has a master’s degree in general management and a bachelor’s degree in journalism & PR and has previously worked in partner management, go-to-market environment, and marketing. As Partner Manager, she reports to Stefan Eckardt, Head of Platform Success at Arvato Systems.

"Partnerships are an essential part of our success and a decisive factor for growth in a global environment. At Arvato Systems, we place great value on lasting collaborations. With Annika on our team, we can invest more time in this important business area. It also allows us to further strengthen relationships with our partners to position the Vidispine brand and portfolio even better in the future," explains Stefan Eckardt.
