International. Last February, Milestone Systems presented the tenth edition of the most important meeting for Milestone integrators and business partners, the Milestone Integration Platform Symposium (MIPS). This year, the most outstanding novelty was the presentation of Husky's hybrid product line, which will be one of the best options to choose for those who are looking to migrate their video surveillance systems to IP.
Las Vegas, in the USA, was the city where the meeting was held, which was described by Manuel Nylén, Sales Director for Latin America and the Caribbean of Milestone Systems, as "the largest event of its kind held to date, with the largest number of attendees and business partners". It is at this meeting that integrators and partners present integrated solutions with Milestone, "the first event of the year for the industry in the Americas," according to Nylén.
The highlight of this year was the presentation of the hybrid lines of Husky video recorders, which will be an option for those who are interested in migrating to IP in Latin America. "There will be additions to the three existing models, which will make the Husky product line even more robust," said Nylén, who added that attendees had very positive comments, as it is clear the potential they have for the region, "added to the benefits of using them with the XProtect Corporate platform through Milestone Interconnect", to create an integrated and robust solution.
It should be noted that this year the number of Latin American participants increased significantly, counting people who came from Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, Argentina and Ecuador, where they were able to learn about the "panorama of opportunities" offered by Milestone with its open video platform, compatible with most CCTV cameras in the market.
"MIPS is the best forum to offer greater knowledge in the solutions integrated with Milestone, where visitors can network directly with our business partners, without intermediaries. In addition, they can receive new business ideas from other partners in other geographies," Nylén said.
Finally, the executive indicated that the comments were positive and that, in general, Latin American attendees are always interested in knowing the success stories, "because it gives them an overview of what is done in other countries and sometimes it is an example for their own opportunities." He also thanked the attendees, and said that it is their commitment that motivates the company to continue offering the best solutions.
