HYCU, Inc., a leader for modern data protection for
on-prem, cloud services, and SaaS, and one of the fastest growing companies in
the industry, today announced that CRN has named Wendy Inwood, Senior Manager, EMEA Channel, HYCU, to the
prestigious 2025 CRN Channel Leaders List for EMEA. The listing
highlights the most influential figures driving innovation, growth, and
collaboration in the IT channel across EMEA.
Wendy Inwood
has been instrumental in spearheading new partner acquisition and helping
existing partners deliver data protection across on-premises, hybrid cloud, and
SaaS. Since the introduction of HYCU R-Cloud, Wendy has introduced HYCU to partners in
need of SaaS-based solutions where no other solutions were available. In
addition, her focus has been on partner success development, embedded
engagement, and relationship driven sales. Wendy takes a hands-on approach by
directly working within resellers’ sales departments to provide training,
increase brand visibility, and offer rapid support. She is known for providing
excellent customer support and care.
“All of us at
HYCU are proud of Wendy and the work she continues to do for our key channel
partners across EMEA,” said Chris Nelson, Vice President, Global Sales, HYCU.
“Wendy is an outstanding channel and partner relationship manager and has done
an exceptional job of nurturing existing key partner relationships while
fostering and creating new ones especially for those that need SaaS-based data
protection solutions with HYCU R-Cloud. She is a joy to work with and I
personally enjoy hearing from our partners about how critical she is in
developing joint solutions that address the growing need for data protection
across multiple clouds, and on-prem to SaaS. Congratulations Wendy, well
deserved!”
The CRN
Channel Leaders list recognises IT vendor and distribution executives who lead
channel strategies for their organisations and drive innovations across channel

ability to forge meaningful partnerships and craft dynamic strategies is
transformative for providers and the channel. It’s a privilege to recognise
their groundbreaking contributions and celebrate their role in shaping the
future of the channel.”
Wendy Inwood
added, “It’s an honor to be recognized by the editorial team at CRN UK. The
work that all of us at HYCU do with our key channel and strategic alliance
partners to keep important customer data secure, protected and recoverable in
the event of an outage or disruption is incredibly rewarding. In particular,
the innovation our team drives for on-premises and cloud workloads coupled with
the more than 80 SaaS applications we currently support is a testament to the
tireless work of our engineering and enablement teams. 2025 is shaping out to
