This week, the managed services community converged in Tampa for Rewst’s FLOW 2025, a two-day event packed with insight, automation innovation, and meaningful conversations. Hosted by Rewst, FLOW isn’t your typical trade show—it’s quickly becoming a must-attend destination for MSPs serious about scaling smart, serving better, and embracing the future.

With a strong lineup of speakers, live podcasts, vendor spotlights, and educational sessions, FLOW delivered value at every turn. As a podcaster and active participant in the MSP space, I walked away with a clear picture of what’s ahead for the industry—and it’s bright.

Here are the top three takeaways from FLOW 2025:

One of the most inspiring aspects of FLOW 2025 was the sheer sense of community. From the moment the doors opened, the energy was electric. Attendees weren’t just there to collect swag or sit through pitches—they were genuinely engaged. Whether you were a startup MSP, an established TSP, or a cybersecurity vendor, you could feel the shared sense of purpose: solving real problems together.

Rewst created the kind of environment where collaboration happened naturally. Sessions were conversational, speakers were approachable, and hallways became hives of connection. One standout moment was a presentation on “MSP DNA,” which traced the path of a tech entrepreneur-turned-investor who’s made over 30 angel investments in the channel. The message was clear: this industry is full of people building real, lasting impact—and they’re doing it together.

Perhaps the most impressive takeaway was just how far Rewst has moved the needle on automation in only one year. According to stats shared during the keynote, since the inaugural FLOW event:

These numbers are staggering—and they show just how vital automation has become in the daily operations of modern MSPs. Whether it’s reducing technician fatigue, streamlining onboarding, or handling repetitive tasks with bots, automation is delivering measurable ROI.

What stood out was how Rewst framed automation not as a threat to jobs, but as a liberator of time—freeing teams to focus on client relationships, strategy, and innovation. One speaker even likened the shift to a Jedi mindset, quoting Yoda:

Legacy tools and outdated processes won’t cut it anymore. FLOW 2025 made it crystal clear: if you’re not automating, you’re falling behind.

I had the privilege of recording interviews live at the event for the Joey Pinz Discipline Conversations Podcast, speaking with MSP leaders, vendors, and subject matter experts on-site. The recurring theme? Discipline—not just in technical execution, but in mindset, leadership, and staying true to your company’s mission.

These conversations will be featured in upcoming podcast episodes throughout July, offering listeners a behind-the-scenes view into the minds of some of the most innovative thinkers in the MSP ecosystem today. From technical founders to channel marketers, the stories captured reveal the heart behind the hustle.

FLOW 2025 wasn’t just a conference—it was a milestone. Rewst has proven it can lead the charge not just in automation, but in fostering community and elevating the voice of MSPs. As we look ahead to another year of transformation, it’s clear that FLOW is more than a name—it’s a current reshaping the industry.

Stay tuned for podcast episodes, speaker insights, and more follow-up coverage. And if you weren’t there this year? Make sure it’s on your calendar for 2026.
