On October 20, 2016, K-array invited its network of partners to attend the annual Global Distributor Meeting at its headquarters in hills of Tuscany, Italy. The GDM provided the opportunity for distributors to deep dive into K-array’s diversified portfolio of products and technology that are unique to the market to help optimize the team’s knowledge to approach future projects with confidence and expertise.
“I strongly believe that the past years, K-array has been evolving under the sign of creativity, innovation and productivity,” explained Marc Vincent Head of Sales, Asia Pacific. “Our line of products that is so diversified and so complete that we wanted to provide the opportunity to our distributors to network with the entire K-array family and build their knowledge.”
The two-day event kicked off with a reception that showed off K-array’s innate sense of Italian hospitality by dazzling their guests representing over 50 countries with delicious local cuisine, fine prosecco and an F1 racing simulator.
Presentations were given by project consultant Daniele Mochi who discussed the advantages of digital steering as well as the company’s exclusive Slim Array Technology (SAT) and the innovative Pure Array Technology (PAT). Product specialist Franceso Maffei gave distributors a sneak peek of K-array’s new products currently in production that will be launched at large industry tradeshows in 2017.
The event evolved into a celebratory affair in the evening during the awards dinner when several distributors were singled out for their exemplary efforts and installations throughout the year. The following were those who were awarded:
