ST. CLOUD, MINN., APRIL 4, 2024 — Marco, a leading technology services company, announced today that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named Marco on its 2024 Tech Elite 250. This annual compilation showcases solution providers based in the US and Canada that have attained top-tier certifications and specializations from leading technology vendors in the areas of infrastructure, cloud, and security. This is the sixth year in a row that Marco has received this rare distinction. This announcement comes after CRN® named Marco to its Managed Service Provider (MSP) 500 list in the Elite 150 category for 2024.
Appearing among the Tech Elite 250 in any given year is a notable achievement. But maintaining Tech Elite 250 status over six years is remarkable, especially as the industry continues to face widespread consolidation, persistent labor shortages, and increasingly sophisticated cybersecurity attacks.
“CRN’s Tech Elite 250 highlights leading-edge solution providers within the IT landscape, distinguished by their comprehensive technical proficiency, expertise, and commitment to achieving top-level certifications in critical technology areas,” said Jennifer Follett, VP, US Content, and Executive Editor of CRN at The Channel Company. “These solution providers persistently strengthen their capabilities to bring the advanced IT solutions to market that customers need.”
Trevor Akervik, Marco’s Chief Operating Officer, believes that the company’s enduring success is due, in no small part, to its focus on relationships:
