A List of Channel Trade Publications for UK IT Companies

Here is a list of Trade Publications and Web-Sites that should be of interest to UK IT Companies and Managed Service Providers (MSP’s) and one that I hope to keep regularly updated.

Reading Trade Publications of this sort is a great way to stay current with what is happening within the MSP industry space. As an MSP business owner, it helps you understand the industry, it helps you engage with Vendors and Distributors more effectively and gives you a competitive edge.

I keep up to date with many of the following publications either by RSS feed, through their Social media channels, or through old-fashioned reading printed copy!
