HOW TELTONIKA’S SUMMITS BRING ADDITIONAL VALUE TO PARTNERS
#corporatenews, #events
Nothing compares to a face-to-face meeting with your client when building solid business relationships. But how to add even more value and nurture the connections you already have? In 2024, we have organised nine big events for our partners, including Telematics Summit, Tech SummIT, and Partner SummIT. Learn about the benefits of such events and what ensured their success.
Telematics Summit Europe
For the Telematics Summit Europe 2024, we invited our European partners to Teltonika’s newly built modern headquarters in Vilnius. The event took place in June, September, and October and gathered more than 400 participants.
Teltonika aims to be close to partners and help their businesses grow and thrive by offering the most suitable solutions. Hosting events like the Telematics Summit naturally aligns with this vision. The summit offered a perfect opportunity to equip our partners with the tools and insights on how to maximise the benefits of our products.
The participants learned about our latest telematics devices, market insights, important legislative changes, and much more. To showcase Teltonika’s devices in action, we shared real-life success stories and versatile product applications.
The events were packed with valuable presentations, workshops, and live demonstrations of telematics solutions. During the guided tours to our production facilities, where Teltonika’s devices are born, partners had a chance to talk with our technical and manufacturing teams.
This is an opportunity that telematics professionals wouldn’t want to miss. As Konstantin Kolmakov, Teltonika’s telematics sales director for Europe, notes: “Telematics Summit Europe is more than just an industry event. It’s a platform in Vilnius where top professionals come together to exchange ideas, discover new strategies, solve challenges, and make important connections. Our technical engineers, sales teams, and other experts are there to share their knowledge and answer any client questions. Inch by inch, this event is helping to grow telematics technology to a higher level across Europe.”
Telematics Summit Dubai
The telematics market varies worldwide, meaning the needs, challenges, opportunities, and legislative requirements differ in every region. For example, what is relevant for our European partners might not always be relevant for those in the Middle East. That is why regional summits are vital.
Our first regional Telematics Summit took place in Dubai, where one of Teltonika’s oldest offices is located. Having highly experienced local tech support and sales teams helped us to organise a unique and versatile event. The summit featured topics and use cases pertinent to the Middle East, sneak peeks and early access to unreleased products, and our telematics solutions roadmap. Organising regional summits is crucial to staying closer to our partners around the world and building a community of fellow solution providers.
Tech SummIT
This exceptional event was dedicated to engineers, those who directly interact with our networking devices and implement any idea into a functional solution. Our partners’ engineers had a chance to meet with our technical and R&D teams and get the most detailed information about our networking solutions firsthand. The Teltonika Tech SummIT events took place in three cities: Warsaw, Prague, and Cambridge, and welcomed almost 300 partners.
The events featured presentations on topics highly relevant to our partners, including cybersecurity, diverse functionalities of the RutOS operating system, and time- and resource-saving benefits of the Remote Management System. To offer them additional value, we also invited our technology associates, who introduced some hardware and software compatible with Teltonika’s networking devices. The most important and awaited presentation was a session on networking devices roadmap. It provided our partners with insight into our product development trajectory, fostering deeper alignment and collaboration.
The highlights of the event were interactive stands and practice sessions with a special Configuration Challenge activity. Our dedicated engineers conducted live demonstrations of use cases, hosted small-group device function deep-dive sessions, and answered all the questions. The bravest participants could test their engineering skills in a device configuration challenge, specially prepared by our technical support team.
Our partners’ support and positive feedback encourage us to bring the Tech SummIT to even more cities worldwide. Vytautas Sventickas, Head of Europe Sales Continent at Teltonika Networks, shares: “I love the format of our events where the real decision-makers of our partners — engineers — meet the creators of Teltonika’s networking solutions face-to-face. The spark in their eyes when they learn some new ways to solve their everyday struggles is something you cannot tell but must see.
We firmly believe that every Teltonika Tech SummIT brings real professionals together and is an ideal platform for sharing experiences, solving problems on the spot, and providing a comprehensive view of Teltonika’s solutions. We have no plans to slow down, and we’ll continue this event series into 2025. There are still many locations we haven’t reached yet. I genuinely believe that staying close to our partners is the key to mutual success.”
Partner SummIT
Smaller but equally exciting events for our partners were held in Istanbul and Lyon, gathering more than 100 participants. The Partner SummIT events were an excellent opportunity for us to build strong relationships in local markets and for our partners to see our latest technologies up close.
Aurelija Litinskienė, CEO of Teltonika’s Türkiye office, shares her excitement about the success of the first Partner SummIT in Istanbul: “This event served as an excellent platform to showcase our dedication to the Turkish market and foster valuable connections with local businesses. Partners greatly appreciated the opportunity to interact with our team and explore the latest technological developments.
It is essential that we consistently share our plans with our network in Türkiye and actively gather market demand. Only through this continuous exchange can we ensure mutual success. The Partner Summit marked a pivotal moment in reinforcing our presence and setting the stage for further innovation and collaboration in the region.
We look forward to maintaining this momentum and eagerly anticipate our next events, where we will continue to build relationships and unlock new growth opportunities.”
