Global Telecom Solutions (GTS) celebrates 8th Annual Open House

DETROIT - Aug. 16, 2022 - PRLog -- Global Telecom Solutions (https://gtsdirect.com/) (GTS) returned once again to the Detroit Athletic Club (DAC) for its Annual Open House, drawing sales partners and channel managers from regional and national companies around the country.

More than 200 people from over 100 different companies took part in the open house, which included technology exhibits and several industry awards presented by GTS to its partners. GTS's own CEO, Mark Stackpoole, served as this year's keynote speaker.

This is the second time the DAC has hosted the annual event, that brings together "cloud," connectivity and cybersecurity providers from across the nation. Now in its 8^th year, the open house is centered on networking and business development for the GTS sales partner community.

During the open house, which draws many in-person charity donations, Detroit-based GTS announced $20,000 in donations to two area nonprofits. This year Camp Casey, located in Farmington Hills, Mich., received $10,000 while Alternatives for Girls (https://alternativesforgirls.org/), located in Detroit, was presented a check for $10,000.

"I am absolutely blown away by the support GTS has shown Camp Casey over the years," says Molly Reeser, Camp Casey's Founder/Executive Director. "Though our program numbers continue to grow -- we're serving more kids than ever before! -- with GTS's help we've been able to stay in the saddle and will not have to turn down a single applicant!"

"With GTS's support, AFG can continue to expand and strengthen critical programming that is an investment in the girls and young women we serve," said Cecile Aitchison, Chief Development Officer of Alternatives For Girls. "AFG's services are unique in providing long-term, individually responsive support to those that seek our services, and our partners like GTS help us make an even larger impact."

The open house also honors technology providers for their work over the past year. This year the Channel Manager of the Year went to John Komos at Vonage (https://www.vonage.com/) with Bailey Terrell at CallHarbor (https://callharbor.com/) as the runner up.

The Service Provider-Carrier of the Year was CallHarbor with The Mako Group (https://www.makopro.com/) as runner up and Vonage an honorable mention.
