Turning Technologies, LLC Establishes Canadian Affiliate Turning Technologies Canada

Posted on: Wednesday, 18 January 2006, 09:01 CST

Newly Licensed Company Will Meet Needs of Canadian Customers via Local Leadership and Full Range Sales, Training and Technology Support Services

Turning Technologies, LLC, a leader in the development of software and hardware audience response systems, today announced a new dedicated licensed affiliate, Turning Technologies Canada, Inc. Headquartered in Mississauga, Ontario, the Canadian enterprise will manage all national distribution, training, support and service of Turning Technologies products throughout the Canadian market.

"Turning Technologies Canada is another positive step toward the globalization of our products and services. With over 15 years of experience in the industry, they are an outstanding partner and we look forward to working with them to further establish TurningPoint's market leadership across Canada," said Turning Technologies LLC President/CEO Mike Broderick.

The decision to expand with a dedicated Canadian agent came as Turning Technologies continued to experience steady business growth through resellers in Canada. With the recent release of both TurningPoint(R) 2006 and ResponseCard(R) RF keypads, the demand for Turning Technologies audience response systems continued to increase. Turning Technologies Canada already has established reseller agreements in Quebec with forecasted growth in British Columbia, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Alberta.

"Turning Technologies' products opened up a whole new market in the audience response industry," stated Paul Franchetto, Turning Technologies Canada President and former President/Owner of PVF Media Solutions. "As an add-on to PowerPoint(R), TurningPoint is an ideal software solution for any one looking to engage their audience in a new and exciting way, and the ResponseCard keypads are extremely popular with our customers because they are so compact and portable. The ability to distribute these exceptional products throughout Canada and leverage the success and experience of Turning Technologies is an excellent opportunity for us."

TurningPoint, Turning Technologies' interactive PowerPoint software, collects real-time participant responses. Participants use keypads, laptops or PDA's to submit responses to questions presented via PowerPoint slides. This audience response technology is extremely popular with K-12 educators, colleges, university, and corporate trainers because TurningPoint's interactive questions engage audiences and allow presenters to identify and confirm understanding, increase attentiveness and comprehension, as well as gather, rank and report critical information.
