Reading, UK, January 18th, 2012 IGEL Technology today announced two key events for its thin client resellers in the UK as part of its re-certification and accreditation program. IGEL’s 2012 UK Partner Days in Reading and Manchester are designed to technically and commercially update current IGEL partners and to introduce new partners to the technology benefits of IGEL thin clients.

These latest partner events will help IGEL build on its record year in 2011 where the business saw strong organic growth in sales of its Universal Desktop thin clients and 570% growth in license sales for its Universal Desktop Conversion software, designed to convert old PCs and thin clients into easy to manage IGEL desktops.

At the forthcoming partner days, resellers will hear more about IGEL’s leading product roadmap for 2012 and marketing activities for the year, as well as hearing about the latest developments on Desktop Delivery from important technology partners, such as Thinkgrid, Centrix Software and Citrix.

“Thin clients are becoming an important desktop decision for many organizations, as they switch to cloud computing, VDI environments or conventional server-based computing,” said Michele Nicholson, IGEL’s Channel Sales Manager for the UK. “Our Partner Days will demonstrate that IGEL continues to be the clear technology choice for our partners and their customers.”
