Steljes launches SMART's £250,000 Capital Bond Celebration

The SMART Board™ interactive whiteboard is the world’s number 1 selling interactive whiteboard* with over 250,000 units sold in the UK alone. To celebrate SMART channel partners will receive Capital Bond vouchers with every SMART Board interactive whiteboard supplied by Steljes Ltd - the only approved UK distributor and SMART Authorised Service Organisation in the UK.

The interactive whiteboard market is forecasted to grow by 38% in the next 4 four years* driven by demand for corporate meeting room solutions, healthcare applications and wider public sector adoption. In today’s economic climate, organisations are investing in technology that yields immediate cost savings and improve efficiencies. SMART products are helping organisations achieve these aims by reducing their carbon footprint and associated travel costs as well as improving productivity.

Graham Wylie, Group Product Director, comments “SMART Boards are a resounding success in the education sector and we see increased demand from business customers as the channel incorporates them alongside videoconferencing and other collaborative tools. The £250,000 Capital Bonds Celebration is one way of saying thank you to all those partners that have helped make education a success while rewarding those that are investing in future growth.”
