HItachi, Clary Icon Partner Up for Joint Sales, Marketing

Clary Icon, the US-based manufacturer of the Clary OneScreen interactive video whiteboard, and the US StarBoard Division of Hitachi Solutions America have entered into a joint sales and marketing partnership. Under this agreement, Hitachi’s StarBoard sales and marketing team will provide full sales and support to both customers and resellers of the Clary OneScreen.

The Clary OneScreen combines a multi-touch interactive display with a high definition video conferencing system, creating a fully integrated voice, video, and data collaboration solution.

“Business, government and education customers can dramatically lower the cost of meetings, training sessions and sales presentations by using the Clary OneScreen,” says Mark Sturges, Director of StarBoard Division. “It offers more value than systems currently selling for nearly twice the price, and can interface with consumer-level clients such as Google Talk and Skype in addition to popular business conferencing standards. The inclusion of Hitachi’s StarBoard Software is the icing on the cake.”

“The partnership between Clary Icon and Hitachi Solutions America creates an immediate and strong opportunity to introduce the Clary OneScreen to corporate users,” says Sufian Munir, CEO of Clary Icon. “Hitachi’s StarBoard Software adds powerful annotation and web integration features that make the OneScreen competitive in the market and easy to use. This partnership is a natural evolution of our work together.”
