The 5^th Annual Pragma Conference was held on Thursday 1^st March 2018 at St Georges Park, Burton-Upon-Trent, home of the FA’s National Football Centre. The theme this year was ‘A Different League’.

Our reseller partners joined the Pragma team and the Ericsson-LG Senior Management to celebrate the past year’s success and the exciting roadmap for 2018.

The solution fair was a great opportunity for resellers to learn about what new technologies are on offer and to further their knowledge on the existing product set. Products showcased included PHONE-LiNK by Mondago, iCall Suite by Tollring, ContactQ by Braxtel, SO Connect and GetCrisp, as well as Ericsson-LG iPECS technologies, both on-premise and cloud solutions.

We were delighted to feature presentations from Managing Director at Pragma, Tim Brooks, Sales and Marketing Director at Pragma, Will Morey, Business Development Managers at Pragma, Ed Savory and Helen Ranaghan, Head of Technical Operations at Pragma, Mark Proops.

We also welcomed guest speakers, VP of Global Sales at Ericsson-LG, Ahed Alkhatib all the way from South Korea, Founder and CEO at SO Connect, Daan Donders from Amsterdam and National Sales and Marketing Manager at Aria Technology, Ericsson-LG's Australian distributor, Peter ‘Willow’ Williamson.

The evening commenced with pre-dinner drinks and a traditional Korean Soju toast before we recognised and celebrated our resellers achievements over the past year. For the second year running, we welcomed back Editorial Director, Nigel Sergent of Comms Dealer to present our reseller awards. The evening was a black-tie affair complete with three-course dinner, awards, live music, stand-up comedian and speed football.
