MIAMI–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Appgate (OTC: APGT), the secure access company, today announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named Tina Gravel, Senior Vice President of Global Channels and Alliances, to its 2022 list of Channel Chiefs.

“We are enormously proud of Tina, whose leadership, talent and drive embody Appgate’s can-do attitude and determination to provide enterprises with unparalleled solutions and service that help them advance their Zero Trust security initiatives,” said Barry Field, CEO, Appgate.

Among her accomplishments in 2021, Tina:

- Launched Appgate’s Sentinel Program, a global partner program, and enhanced it to include additional rewards and benefits, including expanded market development funds and new training materials
