BATAVIA, Ill., July 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- High Wire Networks Inc. (OTCQB: HWNI), a leading global provider of managed cybersecurity and technology enablement, announced its chief marketing officer, Susanna Song, was named to the inaugural 2023 Inclusive Channel Leaders list by CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company.
The list recognizes executives from vendor, distributor, and solutions provider organizations whose commitment to inclusive leadership are making an impact across the IT channel. CRN honors these individuals for their unwavering dedication to inclusivity in the IT channel and technology industry.
“We are so excited to announce this year’s honorees and shine a light on their passion and commitment to inclusivity across the channel. Because of their transparent leadership, our work environments are safer and more accepting places where everyone can feel comfortable showing up as the best version of themselves each day,” said Blaine Raddon, CEO of The Channel Company. “The channel is a more caring and compassionate place because of them, and we look forward to seeing what great things they do next.”
Song leads the marketing of High Wire’s managed cybersecurity and technology enablement services that are sold exclusively through the company’s channel partner network. Since Song joined High Wire in 2018, the network has grown to more than 625 worldwide, including many channel partners and their customers represented in the Fortune 500 and Fortune 50.
Song is leading the go-to-market strategy for its recently announced introduction of a proprietary new cybersecurity technology that is delivered via a security module in a web browser.
Song is also the creator, producer and co-host of The Cybersecurity Simplified Podcast, which last year logged more than 100,000 downloads, drew listeners from more than 100 countries, and ranked in the top 5% of most podcasts shared globally on Spotify.
In May, Song was named to the 2023 Women of the Channel by CRN. This followed High Wire being added in February to CRN Magazine’s MSP 500 and Elite 150 lists for 2023. The Inclusive Channel Leaders list is now the fifth CRN award High Wire received over the past few years.
“This listing recognizes High Wire’s dedication to creating a diverse workplace for the benefit of our employees, partners and end customers,” stated Song. “From hosting high school interns and working with DoD SkillBridge veterans, to employing teams from across the U.S., we strive to create an environment where everyone is given the opportunity to be the best versions of themselves.”
The 2023 Inclusive Channel Leaders list is featured in the July issue of CRN Magazine, with online coverage available at www.CRN.com/Inclusive-Leaders.
