Partnerships are important to us at GEO Jobe and to our business. The Esri Partner Program ensures that we are on the cutting edge when it comes to technology. In addition to having support from Esri and access to software,resources, and community we are also building our own network, and partnering up with other Esri Partner companies.
Working with Partners
The Esri startup program is an amazing program that provides member companies with access to software, technology, community, and other partners. Working with partner companies has been an important part of our business while seeing new apps come to life in the ArcGIS Marketplace is a fabulous testament to what is possible when companies team up and work together with cutting edge technology. At Esri Partner Conference we chatted with Alan Cassidy, Product Manager – ArcGIS Marketplace & ArcGIS Online at Esri and Martin Copping, Partner programs, Patterns & Practices at Esri. We share that discussion below:
