This annual list recognises the IT vendor and distribution executives who are driving strategy and setting the channel agenda for their companies.
This is the second consecutive year that Castillo has been recognised as a CRN Channel Chief. He is responsible for channel sales and marketing for Epson’s North American commercial business.

“The channel is an extension of our company, which reflects our values and embraces our goals and objectives. We rely on our channel for scale and to achieve the customer proximity that we have defined as central to our business’s success,” said Castillo. “We invested in marketing resources that focus not only on the end user but also on the benefit that our partners gain when selling our products. Our partners are our number-one customers, and they represent the voice of our end users.”
