Recruiting for sponsors for next week's Sage Summit closed on an up beat. This month, the company added Microsoft as its sole Diamond Sponsor and Deloitte Digital, MasterCard and Salesforce as Platinum sponsors, pushing that group to five members. Overall, that brings the total exhibitors and sponsors to 124, if I did the math correctly, and I had reported there were 114 a year ago. While the total numbers aren't up that much, the number of big players outside of the usual Sage reseller and ISV community look good, much better than last year.
