ALE, operating under the Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise brand, recently held its annual Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise Partner Day. The event is dedicated to strengthening and driving growth between the company and its business partners.
The theme of the 2016 conference “Own it!” encourages partners to consider how to deliver technology opportunities that the changing customer environment represents today.
This year the event has become a global affair with eight regional and numerous local events held in close proximity to business partner locations. The eight regional events, hosted for 1-2 days between January 28 and February 4, drew over 600 enthusiastic and dedicated business partners to share their experiences with Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise business leaders. In Asia Pacific (APAC), the 2016 Partner of the Year awards took place in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on February 4. Local events will be held in the coming weeks where additional partners will be recognized for their exceptional performance.
The regional conferences culminated with the recognition of outstanding achievements by Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise Business Partners throughout 2015. Regional leaders emphasized the mission the company shares with its partners to collaborate and develop innovative offers that generate opportunities for business growth.
“The awards acknowledge the investment that these partners have made into our product portfolio over the past 12 months and their achievement in driving business outcomes and growth for their customers. ALE is dedicated to designing solutions that bring value to clients, and these awards illustrate our combined commitment to open collaboration in order to deliver innovative solutions that drive business growth for customers,” said Gerard Sillars, Vice President of APAC, ALE.
According to Jan Zuurbier, EVP Global Sales & Marketing, ALE, “Customer dynamics are changing, end-users are more demanding, and business decisions are moving towards more service-based models. This year’s theme, ‘Own it!,’ is about owning our destiny together to disruptively go after the opportunities that these changing customer dynamics represent. And, what we hope is that this notion of owning our destiny together is the vehicle for not only our joint success for 2016, but also the future. Congratulations to the 2015 award winners.”
