Middle East, 28 June 2010: With effect from June 2010, Satellite Visual Communication has become the sole Middle East commercial partner of IML, the global audience response services arm of Computershare, providing local product availability and event voting services.

Satellite has been supplying audience response services in the Middle East region for 7 years and has become recognised as the market leader.  "With systems that scale from 30 to 10,000 voting keypads we supply the solutions that engage audiences for many different types of meetings and events," commented John Quinn, General Manager of Satellite.

"At Satellite we believe that interaction is the difference between a lecture and a performance. Presenters should consider dialoguing with their audience instead of the ubiquitous 'Death by PowerPoint'. We found that this interaction adds engagement to any event whilst helping audiences retain the subject better," added Quinn. "Try it! Your next audience will thank you!"

Richard Taylor, CEO of IML Worldwide commented, "IML and Satellite share the same commitment to high quality and reliable service to their clients; we are delighted with the prospects that the future holds. We are very excited about the collaboration with Satellite Visual Communications. They are based locally, understand the market and are able to provide Middle Eastern clients with the same high quality meeting experience that we have been providing to our customers around the world."

For Satellite Visual Communications, partnering with IML results in a number of exclusive opportunities and benefits not available from any other interactive event technology supplier. Not only will they now have access to a wider portfolio of products and services, but also the advantage of partnering with a group that constantly ensure that they are the leaders in the development of interactive event technology.

To ensure that customers are aware of the benefits of integrating the latest audience response systems into their meetings, conferences and events, Satellite will be hosting a series of Training Workshops.
