Infotech Software Dealers’ Association (ISODA) has concluded its third tech summit in Phuket (Thailand) from January 23–26, 2013 to reward partners for their outstanding performance in the software reselling and solutions business.

 

Over 105 participants attended the summit this year including the CEOs and Directors of the partner organization.  Also, more than 76 dealers across the country and 15 sponsors participated to make the summit a grand success. This year, ISODA roped in Oracle as its Platinum Sponsor. The theme of the summit “Together We Can” was the spirit of the summit throughout.

 

“The total sponsorship amount has increased by 20 per cent this time compared to last year.

This year, we took solution-focussed approach on seeking sponsorships and speakers. We have got at least one or two sponsorships on various solutions,” said K. Gunasegharan, Chairman, Organizing Committee, ISODA.

 

To make the whole event available to the participants and others, ISODA for the first time has launched an app for the mobiles (app.tecsummit.info). This app was developed in association with Trend Micro and Tally Solution Pvt. Ltd.

 

“We have been very active in resolving many issue but with times changing and profitability and other issues coming up, we need to frame a concrete plan", said Biren Shah, Chairman, ISODA.

 

Sudarshan Rangnathan, Secretary, ISODA, and CEO & MD, said, “We have chosen sponsors in a way to ensure you have a new line of business when you return. The need is to collaborate and use skills of others to grow. Remember, if you are looking for next level, then do not look at an easy way out.”
