ASM Technologies were pleased to be invited to the Computacenter GTS Conferences which took place throughout October. The conference welcomes valued partners to celebrate the non-sales function of Computacenter and celebrate successes whilst looking to the future.

Senior Business Development Manager for Computacenter, Simon Keilty attended the UK event on 14 October and said

“This year’s GTS conference was especially good as it’s the first big event since Covid that partners have been invited to. It was great seeing so many friendly faces and celebrating successes of individuals and teams across the business.”

Key Account Managers for Computacenter Germany, Daria Hein and Indre Jureviciene said

“We really enjoyed attending the GTS Germany Conference in Cologne on 28 October. It was great to see so many of our customers in person who we’ve spoken to over the phone and on email over the past two years. Thanks to the team for inviting us and we look forward to connecting again soon”.

Recently, Leanne Ogden, Head of Business Development and Ellie Swinglehurst, Business Development Manager had the pleasure of attending the Atos Leading Ladies Brunch in aid of The Princes Trust as part of their Million Makers scheme.

“We started the day with a few practice runs, then braved it out on the English Channel. Congratulations to the team for putting together such an incredible event – this truly was the best excuse to get away from our laptops and spend some time with our Atos crew mates in a unique team building experience. Thank you to our very brave team for joining us on the day and supporting a fantastic cause to help transform the lives of young people.”

It’s a very exciting time at the ASM Group as we celebrate 30 years in business.

Over the past three decades the business has evolved significantly to predict and support what our customers need. Back in 1992 ASM found a niche in the market providing specific parts to systems integrators to now supplying innovative and disruptive technologies to some of the biggest IT providers around the world.

ASM has always been about our people and many of our fantastic team have been with the business for decades. Our people have worked hard to build relationships with our customers and continue the business growth and we would like to thank our team for their hard work over the years.

As we look ahead to the next 30 years, the future couldn’t be more exciting.

We’d like to extend a huge thanks to the hugely entertaining Magician, Andrew Dean and Spencer May for creating some fantastic caricatures of the team.

On Thursday 22 September, we held our annual partner event, ASM Thrive, the first in-person partner event in 2 years.

We hosted over 20 vendors, some of whom we’ve partnered with for many years, to more recent relationships fostered over the previous couple of months, and showcased the facilities at our new Cheshire HQ.

Adele Hope-Urwin, Head of Vendor Alliances at ASM said

I’m delighted to be able to host our first in-person Thrive event at our HQ, where we bring our strategic partners together to update and review what we’ve achieved in the first half of our financial year and to plan the second half with structure and focus. This type of engagement is critical to drive business for our partners and support our customer’s needs. I’d like to extend my thanks to the vendors who attended, and I look forward to our continued partnership.

ASM Thrive brings our eco-system of disruptive vendors together to collaborate and discuss future growth plans. We were joined by partners from 7SIGNAL, Camunda, Checkmarx, GoTo, Login VSI, Matrix Booking, Nitro, RealWear, Pro2Col, Seedata, Kollective and Rocket Software.
