GBM wins three awards at the Cisco Global Partner Summit

Gulf Business Machines (GBM), the region’s number one provider of IT solutions, has announced that it was been named the winner of three prestigious awards at this year’s Cisco Global Partner Summit. Cisco revealed the winners during its annual partner conference which took place last week in San Diego, California, United States. The awards GBM received are: 

• The Best Enterprise Partner of the Year 
• The Best Services Partner of Year 
• The Best Partner in the Middle East

The Cisco Global Partner awards further demonstrates GBM’s market leading ability to transfer technology solutions to the Middle East. In winning the Best Enterprise Partner of the Year award, the judges noted that GBM was the only partner across the GCC to achieve two of Cisco’s Master Specialization in Collaboration and Security. Meanwhile, with the Best Services Partner of Year award, a focus on after sales support, quality service and reliable partnership to handle technical support positioned GBM above the competition.

Hani Nofal, Vice President of Intelligent Network Solutions (INS), was in attendance to receive the accolades on behalf of GBM. 

“We are very pleased to receive these recognitions at the Cisco Global Partner Summit, and are honored to have been named the Cisco Best Partner in the Middle East. For the past 17 years, GBM has been working closely with Cisco to develop solutions that enhance digital business operations in the GCC market. We believe these awards only further solidify GBM’s position as the largest and one of the most capable and strategic partners for Cisco in the Middle East.” said Hani Nofal.

The event gathered more than 2,100 participants from Cisco’s eco-system of partners, representing more than 1,000 companies worldwide, from more than 75 countries, to celebrate business success and to chart the commercial strategy moving forward. 

Awarded to exemplary channel partners, the Cisco Global Partner Summit awards are designed to commend top business practices and serve as a model to the industry.
