Meet the 2026 Partner Marketing Leaders Ambassadors

The Partner Marketing Leaders Community Ambassadors for 2026 are here and we could not be more excited about the group we have brought together. Ten practitioners, spanning five continents, with incredible experience at companies ranging from fast-growing SaaS businesses to some of the biggest names in enterprise technology.

What makes this group special is not just the breadth of experience, it is the depth. Between them, our Ambassadors cover the full spectrum of partner marketing: from MDF strategy and co-sell motions to ABM, partner enablement, event strategy, ecosystem GTM, and the growing role of AI in how we all work. Whether you are just finding your feet in partner marketing or leading a global programme, there is something here for you.

Each Ambassador will be contributing to the community through webinars, discussions, and content throughout the year. Here is who they are and what they will be covering.
