“Besides also being the leading company in electronics we decided to bring to Belize both Dell and Epson. Why? One, Epson who sells these printers and the eco tanks, which we are seeing and noting for our different, in the education department especially, for families, you can purchase it at a much lower price and the inks are much cheaper. And with Dell. We are a gold partner with Dell, and as such, what is happening for the future in the next era in artificial intelligence and cyber security? How can they partner with us? What is it that we can offer along with our products? Laptops, computers, and all that. This is for us to make give awareness to the Belizeans. And once again, we want to take that lead and we are doing so.”

 

The forum was a collaboration between Cellular World, Epson, and Dell. At the forum, representatives delved into the big issues facing the tech industry and shared tips on how technicians can tackle these challenges head-on. Dell representative, Byron Urbina explained what the key areas of concern were.

“The main topics are, for example, cyber security. Belize, as the rest of the countries in the region, are facing a new era of cyber-attacks and the idea is to present how Dell is presenting the products and how Dell is helping to prevent that kind of attacks. And the second topic is artificial intelligence, how our products are bringing international intelligence in every aspect of the design of the product, from the hardware design, or even in the monitoring and intelligent monitoring, and help to the end user to be aware of the all AI power from Dell to the hardware.”

 

The teams also brainstormed ways to grow their business and let Belizeans know about the variety of products they offer. Rashmi Ranmarine, Regional Account Manager at Epson, highlighted that Belize’s consumer market is a perfect match for their products.

“Epson is a Japanese company, and one of the key pillars of this Japanese company is to be more environmentally conscious, to reduce our carbon footprint by the year 2050. I’ve realized that in my research, that Belize is very also environmentally conscious, and I think it’s a great fit in terms of how we can support each other as two different entities in making I thought it was just an exciting opportunity to be here and to show that side of Epson.” 

 

Cellular World employees will also be receiving training to strengthen the technical support they are able to offer to Belizeans.

“We will have training programs for our employees and we need to be ahead of the game. AI is real, cyber security is real, and unless we go and be at the forefront, then we cannot offer that to our customers if we are not trained ourselves. And as leaders in electronics, in cyber security and all that, that we want to be. We have to do that first.”
