Next Generation 2024 Winner Badge

(Rome, NY – Sep. 17, 2024): M.A. Polce has been named as one of the world’s premier managed service providers on the prestigious 2024 Next Generation rankings.

The Next Generation list, affiliated with the MSP 501, honors industry-leading managed service and technology providers who drive a new wave of growth and innovation for the tech channel via ground-breaking solutions delivered to their customers. Many of these MSPs generate recurring revenue from cloud, security, unified communications, and other solutions for small, medium, and large clients.

Due to their growth, drive, and innovation, these MSPs represent the future of the technology channel and IT industry. This year’s Next Generation winners were selected from applications received for the 2024 MSP 501.

Channel Futures is pleased to name M.A. Polce to the 2024 Next Generation.

"We are incredibly honored to be recognized by Channel Futures in a market as competitive as the one we operate in. This recognition on the 2024 Next Generation List is not just a milestone for M.A. Polce, but a testament to the way we differentiate ourselves—by leading with a proactive, personalized approach that prioritizes our clients’ needs above all else," said Mike Polce, President and CEO, M.A. Polce. "In an industry where it can be challenging for customers to see beyond the surface of an MSP, this acknowledgment reaffirms the strength of our commitment to innovation, security, and partnership. We believe that true success comes not just from offering services but from becoming an indispensable ally to our clients, helping them navigate and thrive in an increasingly complex digital landscape."

Channel Futures recognizes the channel partner communities for their innovation and contributions to the IT industry. The Next Generation represents that effort.

“Constant innovation is the lifeblood of the tech industry,” said Dave Raffo, manager of the MPS 501 and Next Generation programs. “These MSPs drive that innovation and build sales and marketing strategies around them. I enjoy watching these companies grow and develop and expect many of them will become among the biggest managed service providers in the industry if they’re not already there.”

The data collected by the annual Next Generation and MSP 501 lists drive Channel Futures’ market intelligence insights. Channel Futures uses these robust data sets and data-based trend reports to support editorial coverage, event programming, community and networking strategies and educational offerings.

“These companies are providing innovative approaches to customer solutions and partner engagement never seen before,” said Robert DeMarzo, vice president of content for Informa Tech Channels. “They drive the future growth of the channel.”
