Progress Software`s Annual Partner Kick-off begins on 9 February 2004.
Starting in Durban, the event will also cover Cape Town, Johannesburg and Windhoek, and will culminate with an awards dinner to be held at The Castle in Kyalami, Johannesburg on 13 February.
"The Progress partner network is a fundamental component of our business, and a key contributor to the success of the company worldwide," says Rick Parry, MD of Progress Software SA. "More than 2 000 global application partners use Progress technology to deliver over $5 billion in Progress-based solutions and services annually. The kick-off is our way of communicating with our partners and equipping them with the information they need in the new year for the development of focused business plans, competitive market strategies and comprehensive business applications."
International Progress representatives attending include Chris Clabaugh, VP application partner development, Karl Campbell, regional director for the SAND Region (the EMEA region under which SA falls), and Simon West, strategic products manager for Progress UK.
"In keeping with Progress`s core focus, the Annual Partner Kick-off provides the company with the opportunity to meet the entire Progress community and touch base with all our partners, share news and discuss future developments. It ensures that our combined strategies and key areas of interest are in keeping with our overall strategy for the ongoing development of the local Progress community," Parry says.
