Building on the success of its global IoT (internet of things) business, Ingram Micro Inc. today announced it has been authorized globally to market, sell and support the Microsoft HoloLens 2.

As part of the deal, Ingram Micro and Microsoft will take a phased approach to marketing and selling Microsoft HoloLens 2, starting in North America and select areas of EMEA and Asia Pacific. The new Microsoft portfolio is being supported by Ingram Micro’s global IoT practice, which was established in 2017, and is differentiated by its online marketplace and uniquely orchestrated and growing “secure-by-design” portfolio of solutions, kits, components and services.
“Ingram Micro’s integrated IoT and mixed reality strategy is aligned with Microsoft’s vision of intelligent edge and intelligent cloud computing, and will help us jointly enable businesses across the globe to work smarter using and learning from the experience HoloLens delivers,” says Matt Fleckenstein, Head of Mixed Reality Marketing at Microsoft. “Microsoft is pleased to expand our relationship with Ingram Micro and work across the organization to bring HoloLens 2 to the global channel.”
