CRN recognizes Lewis as Channel Leader for the third time

For the third consecutive year, CRN UK – a brand of The Channel Company – selects James “JT” Lewis, Infinidat’s Director of Channel Sales for EMEA and APJ, and Regional Sales Director for DACH and France, for inclusion on the prestigious 2026 CRN® Channel Leaders EMEA list.

The annual CRN Channel Leaders list honours channel leaders dedicated to building and evolving strategies that drive success for their channel partners and customers. As a highly respected Infinidat channel sales leader, Lewis strategically sets the channel agenda across the region.

“We have a strong commitment to help partners grow their business by providing the support, tools, and enterprise storage solutions that will make them successful in the enterprise market,” explains JT Lewis.  “The Infinidat EMEA Channel Sales Team and I are laser-focused on enabling partners to harness the competitive advantages available to them with Infinidat.  As we continue to increase our channel engagement, this CRN recognition is powerful affirmation of our progress.”

Lewis is responsible for all of Infinidat's sales activities through the channel in EMEA, leading the way for further strategic growth.  In his role as Channel Director, he has been instrumental in successfully growing Infinidat's business and increasing channel engagement, building a strong ecosystem of dedicated channel partners.  Lewis reinforced the latest enhancements to the company’s Partner Program in the EMEA region over the past year to augment the experience channel partners have with Infinidat.

“As my team and I reviewed this year’s Channel Leaders EMEA entries, one thing came through loud and clear: a deep, long standing respect for the channel community.  We want to thank these Channel Leaders for being so open about both their strategies, and what drives them as people.  Across EMEA’s diverse markets and many years of change, we're proud to recognise their ongoing commitment and the role they continue to play in strengthening the channel,” comments Nima Sherpa Green, EMEA Editorial Director, CRN, The Channel Company.
