A Digital Dawn for OEM and Vendor Partnerships

SAICTA’s 10 October Digital Dawn event at the IMM Graduate School, Parktown, was an engaging session, sparking conversation and engagement on driving impactful collaboration in the ICT sector.

The session’s topic Powering Collaboration: Navigating OEM & Vendor Partnerships for Success, was presented by Werner Maritz, Customer and Industry Value Engagement Director, and Shannon Thurston, Academic Progamme Manager, Oracle.

We explored strategies for strengthening OEM relationships to drive innovation, market reach, and long-term growth. These partnerships must be managed by delicately balancing alignment, trust, and mutual value creation.
