The company's win in this coveted category demonstrates the
success of Promethean over the last year, despite unprecedented
budget cuts within education. Promethean's performance in this
category is testament to its commitment to education and
innovation, which has led to continued investment in developing
market leading EdTech solutions.
Ian Curtis, Promethean's Head of
EMEA and Asia Pacific Markets, commented: "As a company with
longstanding history in the EdTech market we've seen a lot of
change in education over the years - and have worked hard to ensure
that we evolve our solutions and support to continue to meet the
needs of schools. We are extremely proud to be recognised as
Company of the Year in the Bett Awards 2019 - it demonstrates that
Promethean as a brand is much more than developing market-leading
technology, it is great testament to our broader education pedigree
and the commitment we continue to make in improving standards and
opportunities in this vitally important sector."
One of the reasons Promethean was recognised as Company of the
Year is its commitment to meet the needs of schools today. With a
core ethos to develop education-focused solutions, Promethean has
not only evolved its range of ActivPanels but also provides access
to a choice of lesson preparation and delivery software to offer
teachers flexibility.
Alongside investing in the development of both software and
hardware, Promethean understands that pressured budgets can be a
barrier to accessing the latest technology for schools. As a result
of this, Promethean launched the Promethean Grant which has gone
from strength to strength over the last two years. Encouraging
creativity and giving back to education, the Grant is an
opportunity for schools to win a state-of-the-art ActivPanel
package.
