New Technology Partner Program to accelerate co-innovation
To join Milestone Marketplace, technology partners need to be part of Milestone Systems’ new Technology Partner Program – a program that offers applications, hardware and services that complement and extend the Milestone XProtect video management platform. The program empowers system integrators to design and deliver innovative video-enabled solutions to end-customers, and helps partners explore the full potential and opportunities of video management technology. With the Technology Partner Program, Milestone Systems wants to leverage the full potential of its partner community by enabling technology partners to market verified technology offerings together with the global network of installers and their customers.
“With the introduction of the new Technology Partner Program, we want to stimulate and drive co-innovation, allowing partners to explore technology synergies with the open XProtect video management platform. This allows Technology Partners to build joint technology offerings that address specific industry or functional needs utilizing the core video capabilities of the XProtect video management platform. The new program also enables partners to benefit from a wide range of marketing resources and activities, including promotion through Milestone Marketplace,” says Kenneth Hune Petersen.
