The Future of Work: A New Opportunity for Partner Growth and Business Value
The digital workplace has become more critical than ever to productivity, business continuity, and employee satisfaction. At the same time, customers are facing increasing pressure from hybrid work environments, growing security risks, longer device lifecycles, budget constraints, and increasingly complex IT infrastructures. In this session, we will explore how partners can strengthen their role by helping customers transition to a more proactive, data-driven approach to IT services. We will examine key market trends, customer challenges, and tangible business outcomes, including reduced downtime, greater visibility, stronger security, and more predictable support.
The session will provide partners with valuable insights on how to position IT services as a strategic driver of customer value, differentiation, and recurring business growth.

Session:
The PDF Opportunity Hidden in Every Microsoft 365 Account
PDF remains at the center of everyday tasks in the modern workplace, but customers now expect more than simple editing. They want secure document workflows, usable AI, accessibility support, Microsoft 365 integration, and licensing models that fit how modern teams work. Tungsten Automation will show how Power PDF Business helps resellers move beyond one-off PDF license sales and open new opportunities around productivity, compliance, customer retention, and recurring revenue.
The session focuses on practical reseller conversations: where Power PDF fits, which business-grade capabilities matter most, which customer profiles to target, and how partners can turn existing PDF demand into higher-value opportunities.
About the speaker:
Oliver is Senior Product Marketing Manager for the PDF & eSignature pillar at Tungsten Automation, formerly Kofax. With a background in channel marketing, product strategy and partner enablement, he has been close to Power PDF’s commercial development for several years. A PDF early adopter, Oliver was already publishing digitally in PDF format as a student in the early 1990s – when print felt too slow, too costly and far too limited.
