Symantec Partner meeting:

Every year Symantec organizes a partner meeting with its important resellers and its distributor in Romania
In 2008 the venue was Sighisoara, an old saxon fortress from 12th century.
The goal of this meeting is to present Symantec’s policy for next year, new products but the more important thing is to socialize with the sales and technical Symantec dedicated persons from its partners.
From every reseller side there was 2 persons (one sales, one technical) and in several cases the managers were invited too. From Symantec side there were 5 persons, sales, technical, and country manager.

The agenda of the event was the following:

Friday: Arrival in Bucharest of the Symantec team, and departure by bus (so that during the trip an exchange of impressions and discussions between Symantec team and partners from Bucharest already started) to Sighisoara. Friday night the whole team had dinner together, around 25-30 persons.

Saturday morning there were presentations, free discussions, one by one discussions, all organized in the facilities of the Hotel where the event was organized.
After a quick lunch a treasure hunt in Sighisoara took place. With the assistance of a professional team of artists the treasure hunt was an opportunity to organize mixed teams (one from vendor side and 3-4 from different partners) so the personal connections became stronger.
Evening some prizes have been given and a show with medieval knights was organized by the artists. Some of the participants became “knights of Transylvania” and a medieval dinner closed the event.

Sunday after breakfast the participants left to their homes and offices
