Just for partners
If you’re part of the OpenText partner ecosystem, your OpenText World experience starts with the OpenText World Partner Summit on October 19. Designed exclusively for partners, the Summit brings you closer to the people, priorities and ideas shaping the future of the business.
At this event you dive into OpenText’s strategy and vision for partner-led growth, hear what’s new in AI and secure information management, and spot the solutions, routes to market, and selling plays that could help you win more business and create greater value for your clients.
Then you have the chance to put those ideas into action. You connect with OpenText leaders, sales teams, clients, and partners to strengthen existing relationships, spark new ones, and explore joint go-to-market plays that could open new client conversations, build pipeline, and create new routes to revenue.
The partner experience doesn’t stop when the Summit ends. Throughout OpenText World there are dedicated partner sessions, networking opportunities, hands-on experiences, and the Partner Expo Showcase Zone to give you even more ways to sharpen your expertise, discover solutions you can take to market, and find new ways to create value for your clients.
Don’t miss your chance to experience OpenText World 2026 live and in person October 19-22.
