N-Able Empower 2026
One of the highlights of the quarter was attending N-able Empower 2026 in Fort Lauderdale. It was an outstanding event from start to finish.
The energy, collaboration, education, and conversations throughout the event were exceptional. The N-able leadership team continues to do an incredible job building a community-centered experience that truly supports MSPs and technology partners. The leadership was approachable, engaged, and clearly committed to helping partners grow and succeed.
It was one of those events where you leave with new ideas, stronger relationships, and real optimism about where the MSP channel is headed.

TEDx at Bates College
Joey Pinz Inspires and Motivates on the TEDx stage.
Back in October, I had the honor of delivering a TEDx talk at Bates College—an experience I’m deeply grateful for. The talk was officially published on the TEDx platform in December, allowing the message to reach a wider audience. Sharing the stage at Bates College was both humbling and meaningful, and it reinforced the importance of thoughtful, disciplined conversations around growth, intention, and long-term impact.
