APC invited us to the mySchneider IT Channel Partner Event in Munich. The event not only provided an opportunity to review the past year, but also offered exciting insights into developments in 2025 and opportunities for 2026.
As a guest in the ‘Partner Best Practice’ category, we were able to present and share our experiences regarding Circular UPS, Factory Renewed products and the refurbishment of IT hardware with the participants.
As an invited partner in the Best Practice category, we were delighted to have the opportunity to speak on a topic of great relevance for the future. Our presentation, ‘Sustainability Next Level’, focused on Circular UPS, the refurbishment of hardware and Schneider Electric’s Circular Certified programme. Among other things, we explained how suitable products are inspected, refurbished and then put back on the market.
At IT-Planet, we are among the first to offer factory-renewed products. Would you like to learn more about factory-renewed products? Then we recommend reading our blog post ‘APC Factory-Renewed UPSs’. Together with APC, we are committed to growth, reliable collaboration and the expansion of our Circular-Certified and Factory-Renewed ranges. At the APC E-Commerce Partner Summit, we were presented with the Green Impact Award. The award recognised, in particular, our commitment to Circular Certified and Factory Renewed products.
In our presentation, we shared our experiences of the refurbished market and of ‘Factory Renewed’ products. These form part of Schneider Electric’s Circular Certified programme and undergo a defined testing and reconditioning process. Suitable devices can then be put back on sale and are labelled accordingly as ‘Refurbished by Schneider’.
The event took place on 4 December at the Augustiner Schützengarten in Munich. The programme included numerous presentations, forecasts for the future and product launches. For example ‘Opportunities for the Channel 2026’, the ‘Future Innovation Roadmap 2026’ and our own contribution from IT-Planet, ‘Partner Best Practice: Circular UPS’.
In addition, everything was taken care of, from catering, hotel accommodation and entertainment to informative and inspiring topics. The atmosphere was pleasant and familiar, like a small gathering with friends.
The event concluded with the award ceremony, followed by dinner at the Augustiner Schützengarten and an after-show party at the MilchundBar. We would like to express our sincere thanks for the wonderfully organised event!
