About the Event
MSP GLOBAL 2026 is an international conference dedicated to the managed services industry, held at PortAventura Theme Park in Barcelona. The event brings together managed service providers, managed security service providers, resellers, systems integrators, enterprise IT leaders, and technology vendors from across the globe. With a vendor-neutral positioning, the conference provides access to emerging tools and technologies alongside sessions designed to facilitate partnership formation and business development.
Cybersecurity and Technology Focus
Cybersecurity forms a central pillar of the conference programme, with sessions addressing how MSPs and MSSPs can stay ahead of evolving threats. The agenda covers artificial intelligence applications, cloud strategy, backup solutions, and data sovereignty considerations. Cyberpsychology also features as a topic, reflecting growing interest in the human factors that influence security outcomes. These technical tracks sit alongside practical guidance on implementing and scaling security services within managed services business models.
Compliance and Digital Sovereignty
The conference addresses compliance requirements and digital sovereignty, topics of increasing relevance as regulatory frameworks evolve across different jurisdictions. Sessions explore how managed service providers can help clients navigate these challenges while building compliant service offerings. This regulatory context connects directly to the cloud strategy and data management discussions elsewhere in the programme.
Business Growth and Channel Partnerships
Beyond technical content, MSP GLOBAL 2026 dedicates significant attention to business development. Sessions cover sales and marketing strategies, mergers and acquisitions, and approaches to scaling partner ecosystems. The event structure emphasises networking and deal-making opportunities, with formats designed to connect decision-makers directly rather than through intermediaries.
