DataBlend, the leading finance-focused Integration Platform-as-a-Service (iPaaS) provider, announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named Laura Merola, Director of Channel Marketing, to the Women of the Channel list for 2023. Every year, CRN recognizes women from vendor, distributor, and solution provider organizations whose expertise and vision are leaving a noticeable and commendable mark on the technology industry.
"The channel is core to DataBlend’s go-to-market strategy and Laura has been a major contributor to our channel’s success. She has put in place a program to help our partners deliver on their goals and drive increased revenue for everyone involved," says David Furth, President and CEO, DataBlend. "The entire team at DataBlend is proud of the recognition Laura has received from CRN by being named to the 2023 Women of Channel list. This recognition is well deserved!"
Laura Merola joined DataBlend in April 2021 as Director of Marketing, and in April 2022, she advanced to Director of Channel Marketing. Laura has spent over a decade in marketing; before DataBlend, Laura served as Senior Project Manager at Tech Data, where she worked closely with technology vendors and channel partners to drive increased demand around IoT and Data Analytics solutions.
"I am honored to be included among this year’s group of talented women who have made significant impacts to the channel, several of which have mentored and inspired me to achieve what I have throughout my career," says Laura Merola, Director of Channel Marketing, DataBlend. "Congratulations to all those honored this year for their incredible accomplishments."
The CRN 2023 Women of the Channel honorees bring their creativity, strategic thinking and leadership to bear in a variety of roles and responsibilities, but all are turning their unique talents toward driving success for their partners and customers. With this recognition, CRN honors these women for their unwavering dedication and commitment to furthering channel excellence.
