There is nobody better qualified than Doug Ash, founder of TPAC, to tell this story. Click the link below to watch this brief interview with Doug, hosted by the convenors of the TPAC and the TPAC Impact Collective, in which Doug describes:
- The role and importance of the SDK (Software Development Kit).
- How this fostered an ever-growing family of embedded 3rd Party add-on modules, vastly extending the capability of the core Sage 300 product.
- The role of the Business Partner channel in taking responsibility for the end-to-end solution and providing, in Doug's words, "one throat to choke".

About TPAC
TPAC (Third Party Development Conference) has been championing and providing a showcase for Sage 300 ISVs since Doug launched it in 2003.
TPAC has a rich history in North America and, more recently, Southern Africa and Asia. Unlike other conferences, the focus is exclusively on 3rd Party (Independent Software Vendor) products that integrate with and add value to Sage products, including Sage 300 (Accpac) and Sage Intacct.
TPAC offers Sage partners a unique opportunity to connect with industry experts, network with peers, and engage with both leading ISVs and the Sage global and regional leadership teams. Expect insightful keynotes, discussions, and breakout sessions.
