The Connex23 event recognised outstanding partners and focused on how ALE is enabling partners to drive sustainable business.
Seoul, Korea, June 16, 2023 - Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, a leading provider of communications, networking and cloud solutions tailored to customers’ industries, acknowledged their top performing partners in Korea during their local Connex 2023 partner event which took place on 15th-16th June, in Daejeon City. More than 150 of ALE’s Korean partners came together at the Hanwha Daecheon Paros Resort to discuss innovation across the healthcare, education, transportation, government and hospitality sectors.
The Connex 23, Technology for Good, theme focused on how ALE is leveraging their expertise, solutions and partnerships to enable partners to drive sustainable business for their customers and meaningfully impact society.
The conference addressed the topic of how businesses can adopt digital age communications with offerings such as ALE’s Digital Age Networking and Digital Age Communications solutions, as well as the autonomous Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista® Network Advisor. ALE, alongside partners HanA-It and Daeshin Global Networks, presented a number of customer success stories, including the Korea Aerospace Research Institute case study.
Nokia, a close ALE alliance partner, also discussed how ALE’s partners can accelerate transformation and create synergy with Nokia’s IP network, Passive Optical LAN solutions and ALE’s industry solutions.
Our sustainable and collaborative partner network is key in developing future-proof solutions for our customers. By working closely with our partners and staying closely aligned with ALE’s vertical strategy, we have seen multiple wins across industries, including government, education, and healthcare. These wins have directly contributed to the significant growth of Korea’s business. Flagship events such as Connex23 let us acknowledge the contributions of our partners. This recognition creates stronger bonds as we invest in them to deliver innovative solutions to give customers a winning edge, enabling them to compete and thrive in today’s digital age
During the event, the ALE Partner Awards were announced to distinguish outstanding partner performance as well as excellence in innovation and growth across key verticals. The awards follow the launch of ALE’s 360 Partner Experience (360PX) global partner programme in April, offering a new “à la carte” accreditation framework that supports partners as they move towards XaaS and subscription-based solutions.
“South Korea represents a strategic and important market for ALE, with the country achieving 150% growth year on year in 2022, including sales growth of more than 60%. Having a strong, extensive partner network is vital in meeting the needs of our customers, especially as we continue on our growth trajectory this year – including key wins in healthcare, education and manufacturing,” said Chunshik Shin, Country Business Leader, South Korea at Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise. “Congratulations again to all the winners at Connex23.
