Intronis Sponsors CompTIA Breakaway 2009 Event

Boston, MA – Intronis, a leading provider of secure online data backup, archiving, and recovery solutions for Managed Service Providers, today announced that it will sponsor four regional events across the country given by CompTIA, the leading trade association for the global IT industry. The CompTIA MSP Business Simulation Experience is aimed at providing technology solution professionals with the knowledge and business skills they need to successfully compete in the growing managed services provider market.
 
The one-day, hands-on workshops will be structured in a game format where teams make all the decisions about marketing, sales, operations, HR and finance for a managed services provider — and own the results. By going through the exercise, participants will gain valuable business knowledge, as well as learn techniques and strategies to improve their profits. The workshops are designed for executives of small technology companies who have decision-making authority over budgets, including head count authorizations, determining what projects the company bids on, and how much the company spends on promotion.
