OKI Data Americas to Sponsor 2012 Lyra Imaging Symposium
MOUNT LAUREL, N.J. – OKI Data Americas announced the company’s official event sponsorship of the upcoming 2012 Lyra Imaging Symposium, taking place January 23-25, 2012 at the Rancho Las Palmas Resort and Spa in Rancho Mirage, Calif. OKI’s top managed print services (MPS) executive, Tim Brien, will lead a presentation at the Symposium highlighting OKI’s recent partnership with Agiliant, Inc. – a managed network services (MNS) provider. This presentation, entitled “MPS meets MNS,” will be held Friday, January 25, 2012 at 1:35 p.m. PST during the Lyra MPS Forum.
The presentation will provide an overview of OKI’s comprehensive suite of services for the BTA dealer channel through OKI’s proprietary Total Managed Print (TMP) solution together with Agiliant’s MITOS (Managed Information Technology and Output Services) program. Brien’s presentation will also explore the state of the MPS market and emerging market trends, such as cloud-based applications and the integration of vertical solutions.
The TMP solution and MITOS program combine to deliver dealers the ability to provide end-to-end, integrated managed network and print services solutions to their customers and to supplement their office equipment sales, lease and service offerings. These powerful offerings will generate immediate returns and recurring revenue streams for the BTA dealers and further establish OKI’s prominence within the channel.
“OKI is honored to be the Official Event Sponsor of the 2012 Lyra Imaging Symposium – a premier event for analysts and industry leaders to gain insight into the digital imaging industry’s latest technologies and trends,” said Tim Brien, director of managed print services for OKI Data Americas. “We look forward to discussing the latest developments in OKI’s MPS capabilities and offerings, including our strategic alliance with Agiliant, as well as the ways in which the incorporation of MPS into a dealer’s suite of services can augment their product portfolio and facilitate both increased revenue streams and longer-term customer engagements.”
The 15th annual Lyra Imaging Symposium features two days of educational events that will deliver insightful industry information and primary research results, and examine how the industry will likely change over the next five years.
