This week, Leyard and Planar, global leaders in visualization products, announced a strategic partnership with Hypersign, representing the best-in-class display manufacturer with the best-in-class visual communications provider. Focused on North America with plans to expand to global markets, this unique offering will be sold through integration and distribution channel partners.
Developed in response to a customer recommendation after an installation at Clemson University, this partnership empowers both companies to serve the channel with strong distribution relationships and broad coverage of resellers. Combining Leyard and Planar’s established base of AV Reseller Partners and Hypersign’s leading customer renewal rate in the industry will result in a second to none customer experience and new sales opportunities for their partner resellers.
Executive Vice President of Sales, Marketing and Pro Services Adam Schmidt told us “Leyard and Planar have always had strong relationships with our customer base and having a customer like Clemson request this industry partnership is reflective of that. Hypersign has a strong customer base in higher education and healthcare. The combined efforts of this partnership will result in increased opportunities across key markets including government, retail, healthcare and education.”
In addition, the companies’ partnership provides customers in digital signage applications across a wide range of solutions with a simplified ability to access and own the combined Leyard, Planar and Hypersign products. It also presents the opportunity to offer an end-to-end visual communications solution that has been tested and proven.
Hypersign Founder Neil Willis said “Many display manufacturers have attempted to integrate either their own CMS or create an ecosystem with partner CMS companies with marginal success. By combining Leyard, Planar and Hypersign technologies, we’ve created a stable and consistently performing product that stakeholders can rely on.”
The new partnership will be on display this week during New York Digital Signage Week at Leyard and Planar’s Video Wallapalooza 2019 New York Event on October 16, 2019.
