To celebrate the eleventh year of the Telarus Partner Summit, our best-in-class annual event is returning home to Salt Lake City, Utah, at the beautiful Grand America hotel. Bringing this amazing once-a-year event back to our homeland means that this year’s event will only be bigger and better.
2021 was the year where we all survived, overcame, and thrived with all the hardships thrown our way during a pandemic. 2022 is the year of innovation, hope, and big wins. This is why this year’s theme for Partner Summit is Olympians of the Channel. Here are seven reasons Telarus Partner Summit 2022 is going to be well worth three days away from home:
2002 was a special year. Telarus was founded, and the Winter Olympics were hosted by Salt Lake City that year. In honor of those two events, we are excited about the theme of this year’s Partner Summit — Olympians of the Channel. With Telarus, we are all winners.
The Grand America Hotel is a beautiful property built for the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics. This beautiful hotel is in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City, close to great shopping and restaurants.
