Partnership Philosophy

Tomas Marty approaches partnerships with three principles. First, mutual value creation: every partnership must solve a real problem for both sides, not just generate logo-swapping PR. Second, revenue focus: partnerships should have a clear path to revenue within the first quarter. Third, executive access: working directly with decision-makers on the partner side, not through layers of partner management. This approach generated EUR 8M+ at Mash Group and $1.2M at Sub7 Security.
