Veeam Vanguard 2021

Posted in Awards

I just found some great news in my inbox. I got informed that my 2021 Veeam Vanguard Renewal has been approved, and I got awarded my fifth Veeam Vanguard award. After being a Veeam Vanguard in 2015, 2016, 2019, 2020, I am proud to be part of the Veeam Vanguard community in 2021 again.

The Veeam Vanguard Program is Veeam’s top-level influencer community. This group shares points of view, provides feedback, and is committed to mutual success. Experts in the Vanguard program are a combination of many different disciplines, contribution types and advocacy mechanisms yet are each the best in space regarding technical thought leadership for the technical communities in which Veeam exists.

These individuals have been nominated as Veeam Vanguards. A Veeam Vanguard represents our brand to the highest level in many of the different technology communities in which we engage. These individuals are chosen for their acumen, engagement, and style in their activities on and offline.

Veeam Vanguard

I am looking forward to being part of this community in this virtualization and cloud journey. I also want to thank Veeam, especially the Veeam Vanguard team, it is an honor to be part of the Veeam Vanguard community again.
