The theme for the Premier Partner Conference, ‘Toast Our Success’, reflected a substantial increase in sales during the previous 12 months of Sanyo’s Full HD camera range.
In his Keynote presentation, Norihiko Morimoto (divisional president of Sanyo sales and marketing Europe GmbH) thanked the delegates for their “superb efforts” which, combined with Sanyo’s highly acclaimed Full HD camera technology, had resulted in the company achieving a share of the HD megapixel camera market in excess of 20%.
Delegates to the conference were given an introduction to a number of new products which Sanyo will be launching during the remainder of 2011, including an ‘outdoor ready’ Full HD range, automatic license plate software and a VMS Broadcast server which will allow users to multi-stream images captured by Sanyo’s full HD cameras to IE, Chrome, Firefox and Safari websites.
At an award ceremony at the end of the conference, a number of distributors were recognised for their outstanding contribution to Sanyo’s success during 2011.
Those companies included Scandinavian distributor Teletec Connect who received an award for Best Technical Support.
UK-based Mayflex won an award for the most interesting non-security application of Full HD technology. Working closely with a systems integrator, Mayflex has supplied Sanyo Full HD cameras to Bath Rugby Club to allow them to analyse coaching techniques and tactical play.
Teleconnect of the Netherlands wasalso recognised for the Best Promotional Idea which saw installers and systems integrators from around Holland transported to Security Essen in a Sanyo-branded coach.
In addition, the award for the Best CCTV Project went to SielenVest from Romania for a city surveillance project in Braila which the company designed based on a combination of Milestone software and Sanyo Full HD cameras.
Krieg Videotechnik from Germany won the Best Solution Award for its UTMS camera system which incorporates Sanyo VDC-HD3300P cameras.
Finally, third-party software developer SeeTec AG from Germany and Cathexis Europe from the UK received recognition as Best Technology Partners.
