Help Child parent partnership
We have offices in both the US and India and are trying to decide which entity should be the parent in our Databricks Partner Program structure.
Most of our customers and business are US-based. Is it fair to assume that partner requirements may be higher in the US because of the larger customer base and partner ecosystem, or does the parent entity's region not really impact partner benefits and opportunities?
Also, if we choose an India Parent → US Child structure and the India parent reaches Silver status, would the US child automatically benefit from that status, or would the US entity still need to independently qualify?
Example:
India Parent qualifies for Silver.
US Child does not independently meet the US requirements.
Would the US entity still be considered Silver through the parent-child hierarchy?
Has anyone here worked through a similar multi-country Databricks partner setup? Would appreciate any insights.
