Washington, D.C. – November 4, 2024 – The ASCII Group, the leading community of independent Managed Service Providers (MSPs) across North America, is excited to announce the return of ASCII Edge in 2025, with events in multiple cities. Following its milestone 40th anniversary in 2024, The ASCII Group remains committed to helping its members build scalable, thriving MSP businesses.

MSPs need a community of IT leaders that provides resources, insights, and networking opportunities to support growth. To meet this need, ASCII Edge 2025 will bring together nearly 1,500 professionals, technology providers, and industry leaders for two days of interactive sessions, strategic networking, and collaborative learning. With stops in eight cities across North America, MSPs will have the chance to connect with peers and explore new pathways for business growth and success.

The Edge conference series will focus on actionable strategies and education. To ensure top-tier content, a special committee of MSP leaders has been tasked with overseeing the event’s programming. Vendor presentations will be reviewed by a distinguished panel of ASCII members, including Diana Giles of Skyline IT Management, Chad Kempt of Fast Computers, and Henry Timm of Phantom Technology.

“Once again this year, we’ve strengthened our approach by engaging three respected MSP leaders to evaluate vendor keynotes, ensuring that the sessions are educational, relevant, and valuable to our audience,” said Jessie Devine, VP of Channel Development at The ASCII Group.
