Mobile Device Management (MDM) – Merger and Acquisition Opportunities in 2014
Posted in Cloud Computing, Tech Sales Institute, tagged acquisition, AT&T, Check Point, CISCO, Cloud Computing, Enterprise Tech Infrastructure, Good Technology, HP, IBM, Juniper, MDM, Mergers, Mobile, Tech Sales Institute, Tech Sales jobs, Technology Market Trends and Outlook, verizon on February 6, 2014|
Established Security and Networking Vendors DESPERATELY looking to stabilize and increase market share should hunt for partners and vendors in the following categories:
- Mobile Device Management vendors in the Cloud
- Consulting and Support Services for Mobile Security & MDM
- Mobile Network Infrastructure Security SW & HW
- Mobile Device Client Security SW
- Mobile Device Security HW
Based on current trends and expected demand I expect aggregate Year over Year growth for the above categories to reach 25%+ in 2014.
With VMware scooping up AirWatch, what is the probability Cisco, Juniper, HP, Check Point and others will add or improve via M&A. Stay tuned!
For established Integrators, Mobile Security and MDM is lucrative. Not sure who to partner with? Schedule a consult to review.

CALL TO ACTION Repeal of the Tech Tax In Massachusetts.
As posted by MASSTLC’s Tom Hopcroft, President & CEO, MASSTLC
_______________________________________
Dear Tech Executives,
There is significant momentum growing behind a repeal of the tech tax and we need your help over the next 24 hours to keep the pressure high as lawmakers contemplate the path forward.
Last week, I participated with our Legislative leadership in the Governor’s Tech Tax Summit, and can report that our messages are being heard. Today, we applaud Governor Patrick’s leadership as he adds his voice to the call for ending the new tech tax. This is a critical time for the tech community to demonstrate overwhelming support for repeal as the legislature considers the issue. We need you to make your voice heard now – whether or not you have previously sent a communication.
CALL TO ACTION – Please contact your legislators within the next 24 hours to urge repeal of this tax. You can use our online advocacy tool to send a letter or call them directly. We have uploaded new alert text that you can personalize for your company’s situation.
Tom Hopcroft, President & CEO, MASSTLC
