Channel Enablers acquires Singapore based Fourth Dimension Group
Channel Enablers, a global channel consultancy, training and solutions company, has announced the acquisition of Singapore based channels training organisation, The Fourth Dimension. The Fourth Dimension provides market leading channel training services and related intellectual property to multi-national high-tech companies in Asia and Europe.

Channel Enablers extends its range globally
This acquisition and merger of the two organizations extends the range of training services offered to clients and provides the foundation to extend Channel Enablers’ training reach into Asian markets. As market leaders in channel consulting and training, the combined client list contains many of the foremost high-tech vendors including Cisco Systems, CA, EMC, HP, IBM, Nokia, Oracle, SAP, Symantec, Sun Microsystems and Veritas, as well over another 120 IT & T Vendors.

Channel Enablers President, Braham Shnider said, “Our company has grown significantly over the past four years as we have been able to assist many multi-national IT & T vendors with their channel operations. In the APAC region indirect channels are often more important than direct channels and we have been under constant pressure to increase our channel training capabilities and bandwidth in Asia to meet the growing needs of our clients. The acquisition of The Fourth Dimension means we will have increased capacity and capability to deliver channel training services to our clients’ channels teams, their direct sales forces and also to their partners across Asia.”

Mr Greg Eckstein, formerly President of The Fourth Dimension, will be responsible for managing the growth and expansion of Channel Enablers’ training business in Asia. He is excited about the prospects of the merged operations: “Channel Enablers has a range of consulting services and training solutions that will extend our current client offerings giving us the ability to offer a full range of channel consulting and training services to our clients anywhere in Asia or globally. I am very excited about the opportunity to leverage my experience running Asia Pacific operations in both vendor and channel organizations to provide Channel Enablers’ customers with world class channels training and consultancy services. Our unique set of channel solutions and talent will drive our growth throughout the Asia Pacific region.”
