EMW - winner of Foundry Networks Exceptional Contribution Award

Dubai, UAE — Foundry Networks held its annual regional partner summit in Dubai today, outlining the vendor’s growth plans in the networking space for the rest of the year.

Approximately 30 partners turned out to the event, which reviewed the vendor’s performance, and outlined its channel plans for the rest of 2006.

“We have a good number of committed channel partners now and we have moved to the next stage, penetrating further into the markets. This strategy has been very successful; it has taken some time for us to get to the stage. Our channel trusts Foundry, as far as support and commitment are concerned,” said Farook Majeed, regional director at Foundry networks.

EMW, the winner of the Exceptional Contribution Award 2005 for the UAE  had been instrumental in targeting a number of vertical sectors, including government, finance, education, media, hospitality and healthcare. On a global level Foundry has pledged to add to its sales teams this year, and Dave Watkins, UK Middle East and Ireland sales director, is confident of the vendor’s current position in the competitive landscape.
