D&H Canada Holds THREAD Event in Edmonton

D&H Canada held its first THREAD trade event of the year: the Edmonton D&H THREAD Technology Roadshow is the first event D&H has hosted in Alberta. It’s also the first D&H Distributing THREAD event held in North America in 2024 so far.

The idea behind having smaller Roadshow events in addition to the THREAD Technology Conferences is to bring D&H Canada’s content and training to resellers and integrators across a greater geography this year, says the company. Other THREAD events will take place in Toronto and Montreal in the fall.

Seminars included sessions from, HPI, Cisco, Lenovo, and Micron, plus a D&H Canada State of Business update from General Manager Michelle Biase. Participating vendors included APC, Easton, Epson, HPE, HP, Jabra, Microsoft Surface, NEAT, Schneider Electric, Seagate, TP-Link, and others.

Here’s a selection of photos from the event.
