Ian is a whirlwind of positive energy and ideas and a force to be reckoned with within the SMB environment. Although I only had the opportunity to work with Ian for a relatively short period of time, his strength in delivering solutions that focused on the needs of the SMB market was unsurpassable. Within cloud computing, Ian's name holds its own weight; from delivering whitepapers on latest developments, running an online commentary through social networking media, or hosting groundbreaking interactive conference seminars Ian is at the forefront of the SMB IT crowd.

Just love Ian's energy to work the channel and provide the support needed. Provides an enormous wealth of information on how things work in the channel and always willing to share.

Ian is also one of the few (is my experience unfortunately) who are really committed to the channel, and doesn't compromise on his relationships when short term opportunities come along.

I am pleased to have been nominated and thank all for your votes and comments thus far.

I have been in the IT sector for over 25 years with the past 8 specialising in Cloud solutions to the SMB sector. I sit on the board of Eurocloud UK & the Governance Board of the Cloud Industry Forum (CIF) & in early 2012 was appointed to the advisory board of SaaSMax.

I was awarded global ‘AllBusiness Sales AllStar Award for 2010’ and The ‘European Channel Personality of the Year Award for 2011’ . I was also named by TalkinCloud as one of the global top 200 cloud channel experts in 2011 and listed on the MSPMentor top 250 list for 2011. Late in 2011 I was awarded by Channelnomics the 2011 Influencer of the year award for Europe and in early 2012 I was the first in the UK to pass the CompTIA Cloud Essentials specialty certification exam.

I continue to speak at SMB events and publish papers on the adoption of cloud technologies and in the past 18 months have spoken across Europe to a large number of channel parties on how to transition a reselling model into the cloud.

John McGlinchey, Vice President, Europe and Middle East Sales Operations, CompTIA - “Ian was the keynote speaker at the launch of our Cloud Essentials exam last week. Having not heard Ian speak before I was intrigued to hear what he had to say. Ian’s talk was riveting. The title was “Making The cloud less Cloudy” and he certainly did that. His understanding of the topic and style of delivery was exceptionally engaging. The icing on the cake is that a few days prior to our launch, Ian sat and passed our exam. We use the word expert too much these days, but Ian is certainly an expert in all things about the “Cloud”.” March 15, 2012

Ian is possibly the greatest SMB ambassador you will meet. He instinctively understands business challenges and how to meet them head on - and take advantage of them.

My recommendation to the judges would be to look closely at the achievements of someone who has SUCH a reputation in his home country, the UK, that his voters from this comparably small region rival the number of votes for some of the other great candidates for this award
