Abstract: This tutorial identifies the significance of researching technology vendors to both buyers and vendors/VARs. Buyers require research to determine the short list and vendors/VARs can use research to assess the viability of opportunities before committing time and money to a sales effort.

The Catch 22 for both buyers and vendors/VARs is to pinpoint the right match in this ongoing 'dating game'.
