Organizer
Canalys was established in September 1998 with a vision from its founders to bridge the gap for channel-focused IT research in the market. 25 years into this vision, our commitment to being channel-centric and providing accurate and timely data to the technology industry has remained steadfast.
To ensure global reach, Canalys established its headquarters in Singapore in 2006, followed by offices in the US, Mainland China, and India. Today, Canalys proudly operates as an integrated global team, equipping them to gain holistic insights and new perspectives. The amalgamation of local with global enables Canalys’ colleagues to support our clients for all their needs.
The heart of Canalys is to create quality technology that sets it apart from the competition. The company, which has consistently strived to pace itself with the evolving dynamics of our world while maintaining a “Digital First” approach, has also employed the principle of “AI First” which is embedded in all the integrated aspects of the company. Launched in 2006, Candefero, Canalys’ global online partner community was created and developed in-house by Canalys’ team of developers. This focus extends across to the Canalys Forums, the largest independent channel events in APAC, EMEA and North America. Our events bring channel partners, distributors and senior vendor management together with over 3,000 attendees every year and have been created with both virtual and hybrid formats to ensure a seamless experience. Our expertise in events and digital led to the formation of Canapii as a separate company in 2020.
Despite no external investment or debt, Canalys has become a global leader in market intelligence, research analysis, events, and consulting services. The company now has offices on four continents and a diverse workforce of over 100 professionals. From its onset, over half the company has been powered through by women – unusual for the tech industry. Canalys has consistently embraced diversity and inclusion of people, thoughts and equal opportunity as its core value.
