Delegates from reseller and distributor partners of 3Com SA - from as far a field as Tanzania, Kenya and Zimbabwe - will convene at Mmabatho this week (4 to 6 October) for the vendor`s annual conference.
According to Debbie Hunter, marketing manager of 3Com SA, the conference - dubbed Partners 3 - will highlight recent product releases from 3Com and address technology advances that have taken place over the past 12 months.
"3Com has taken a number of strides forward over the last year from a technological standpoint, and it is our aim to ensure that the end-users become familiar with our latest solutions and products through our dealers and resellers," she says.
"For this reason we have included a number of workshops in our Focus, OEM and Service Partner conference programmes to familiarise them with new trends and developments."
Buddie Ceronie, 3Com`s UK and EMEA regional director, will deliver the keynote address, which is expected to give delegates an overview of the networking industry from a global perspective. He will also provide insight into 3Com`s strategic positioning on a number of key issues, such as wireless networking, security, and voice communications within the confines of the LAN.
"Our annual partners conference is one of the highlights of the 3Com calendar, and we are delighted to welcome back Buddie Ceronie, who ran the local operation for many years before his promotion within the 3Com organisation," adds Hunter.
