The forecast for this episode? Continuing business-building insights and information with pockets of fun. That's courtesy of Matt, Rich, and returning guest host Dave Seibert, of channel pro IT Innovators and the SMB TechFest event series. Together, they discuss leadership changes at Ingram Micro, a first-ever line of network switches from Sophos, new vulnerability management functionality for Log4j from Nodeware, and the secrets of successful social media marketing.

Then they're joined by Justin Gilbert of Zix for an informative conversation about Microsoft's New Commerce Experience and its implications for members of the Cloud Solution Provider program. Arguably not the most fun topic, but definitely timely.
