Announcement posted by Avaya 28 Feb 2019
Technology market movers from APAC region recognised for innovation in communications and collaboration solutions
Bangkok, Thailand – February 28, 2019 – At this week’s Avaya Partner Summit 2019, held in Bangkok, Avaya Holdings Corp. (NYSE:AVYA) recognised the leading tech pioneers from the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region.
Ten awards were given to Avaya’s leading channel partners from Australia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Hong Kong and China at a star-studded gala dinner. The partners were recognised for creating new ideas to inspire in their quests to revolutionise the way that businesses build customer and employee experiences.
At the Avaya Partner Summit, Avaya demonstrated its go-to-market transformation strategy for APAC channel partners, who will be able to take advantage of Avaya’s fast-growing ecosystem of technology solutions, alliance partners and channel programs to increment and amplify the value of their Avaya business.
“In an increasingly digitised business environment, it is more important than ever for technology companies to collaborate in designing holistic solutions for their customers’ business needs. Today we recognise organisations that share this vision and which are using Avaya’s open communications platforms to innovate, to grow and to deliver additional value to the market,” said Fadi Moubarak, Vice President – Channels, Avaya International.
The lion’s share of awards went to channel partners from Australia, Japan and South Korea, speaking volumes about the sophistication of these markets. Many of the winning partners were recognised for implementing truly innovative solutions that redefined their customers’ businesses.
For instance, the Australia-based Telstra was honoured for its continued ability to develop the latest, customer-centric innovations on the Avaya Oceana and Equinox platforms. Marubeni Information Systems Co., based in Japan, was awarded for developing its own artificial intelligence (AI) solution enabling voice-based recognition, frequently asked questions and interactive voice response (IVR). Meanwhile, the Korea-based TAK Information Systems Inc. was named Innovation Partner of the Year after deploying an advanced omni-channel call centre – the first of its kind in the country.
Avaya also paid homage to the partners most driving cloud growth across the APAC region, where once again Australia and Japan led the field. CTI Solutions, was awarded after it emerged that the company sold over 50 per cent of the PoweredBy seats in Australia last year. And SCSK gained recognition for growing its Avaya cloud business by over 40 per cent last year.
