Trend Micro honours Logicom at 2008 Partner Summit

The award recognises Logicom's outstanding contribution to Trend Micro's revenue during the 2006/07 financial year, largely through attracting new business for the company, leading to a growth in revenue of over 400%.

Working in partnership with their resellers, the two groups have been particularly successful in providing security support for a number of major government and financial institutions.

Justin Doo, Managing Director of Southern Emerging Markets at Trend Micro, said the partnership is a beneficial one for both businesses.

"This award is significant as it shows we have stuck to our plan of increasing our channel footprint and we are delivering value to each other's business. It gives me great confidence in our plans for the 2008/09 financial year," he said, "Logicom's commitment and investment in technical and sales skills of Trend Microproducts and services was the key to this success. I look forward to the continuing success our relationship and would like to thank everyone involved".

Michael Papaeracleous, Executive Director of Distribution at Logicom expressed his gratitude. "We are delighted with the award," he said, "Trend Micro has established a strong position in the Anti-Malware market with solutions that complement our existing portfolio. Logicom also benefits from the company's professional approach, sales support and training. This recognition motivates us to continue to invest in the Trend Micro relationship".
