The next event in the highly popular Comms Business Magazine Convergence Summit series – Manchester 17-18 March 2009, has a new Platinum sponsor – Samsung Electronics UK Ltd

Julian Barnes, General Manager at Samsung said, “We’re very happy to be in a position to be Platinum Sponsor of Convergence Summit, North next year.

Of course 2009, isn’t far away now and it’s probably no surprise to learn that we have plans for growth and expansion over the next 12 months. Samsung has benefited from our previous involvement in Convergence but with more to talk about and more to say in 2009 this seemed like the natural thing to do.”

Barnes went on to explain, “There are three elements to our portfolio: The OfficeServ product range, four systems and a suite of applications; Samsung Hosted Communications and the UbiGate Business Gateway in its own right. All three will have enhancements and growth over the next few months which resellers need to be informed of.

New Mobility solutions, new Messenger application with Presence, new ACD, new IP handsets, new hosted applications and PME are just a taster of new things to come. More important than the solutions themselves is just how will they help our resellers customers face their challenges in 2009. Between us we can address this, we can help our resellers and ourselves be even more successful.

It’s bit of a cliché but from the OfficeServ7030 to the OfficeServ7400, Samsung Hosted Communications and the UbiGate there really is something for everyone, and that applies to both resellers and end users.

Outside of these Samsung solutions there are other developments being put in place for 2009. Our objective is to provide more to the resellers next year – an enhanced Samsung package. As ever, most of our investment is directed at the products and our channel partners but for 2009 we really wanted to give ourselves a bigger platform to reach the resellers and Convergence Summit represents exactly this. You can produce bulletins, brochures and web sites but you can’t beat actually being face to face with Samsung resellers.

See you there.”
