The meeting was designed to inform its various partners on new products and solutions, provide feedback for future and existing products and offered in-depth training as well as hands-on experience with Axis products. An important part of the program was also to pay tribute to and recognize those companies who have shown a proven track record of success in design, selling and implementing new solutions based on Axis products.

“Axis partners are not only part of the industry’s largest professional network, but are also an extension of our team,” said Larry Newman, senior director of sales, Axis Communications, Inc. “It is an honor to bring together the top companies in our industry at ACCC and recognize those strong relationships and shared sense of leadership in providing innovative security and business solutions. These companies are leading the way to a smarter and safer world for all.”
