“We are both proud and honored to be recognized by Axis Communications as its Retail Partner of the Year,” said Matthew Sack, CEO of BSI. “Through our partnership with Axis over the past four years, we have realized significant growth in our IP-Video sales not only with new retail customers but through expanded opportunities within our existing base.”

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.
