Pax8

Pax8 is a global cloud marketplace founded in 2012, built to connect IT service providers, technology vendors and end customers on a single platform. Its stated focus is small and medium-sized businesses: through the marketplace, managed service providers (MIPs and MSPs) and other partners can discover, purchase and manage cloud solutions from hundreds of leading software vendors, while automating much of the procurement process. The company operates across North America, EMEA and APAC.

The scale of the operation is substantial. Pax8 supports more than 47,000 partners, which in turn serve upwards of 800,000 small and medium-sized businesses worldwide. The platform spans a range of technology categories, among them cybersecurity, business continuity, infrastructure, networking, operations and productivity software, giving partners a broad catalogue from which to assemble offerings for their own customers.

Alongside the marketplace itself, Pax8 develops AI-driven tools, community programmes and enablement resources intended to help partners scale and compete. Engineering work touches cloud marketplace technology, procurement automation, AI-driven tooling and the enablement platforms used by IT service providers. The company continues to expand internationally and has been recognised as a Glassdoor Best Places to Work winner.
