What's new at our European Headquarters in Warwick?
The UK-based Security team are very excited to unveil “The Hub” at our site in Warwick, a new interactive customer demo space, providing a fully immersive experience of our security solutions suite – and it is now open for business!
The team officially opened our new space on 2 July with Mark Junge, Chief Executive Security,and Craig Schutte, Executive Vice President APAC & IMEA, who joined the team to reconnect and plan together for the Quarterly Business Review (QBR) week in the UK.
The space has been designed to enable customers, channel partners, tech partners and consultants to come and immerse themselves in everything about Gallagher Security – our company, our culture, our solutions and most importantly our integrations.
The ability to demonstrate Command Centre in multiple different environments and vertical scenarios, showcasing our integration capability with key tech partners is fundamental to creating new business and maximizing the amazing space we have in the Warwick office facility.
The Hub features a demo wall and seating space with six new vertical solutions pods to complement our existing Access control, Perimeter and High Security pods, and includes a movable breakfast bar space with additional seating and the option to extend our demonstrations onto a second video wall in our boardroom.
The team are also able to highlight key tech partner integrations from Stratus, Milestone and Axis to Commend, Traka, Suprema, Halo and many more. Our vertical centric pods focus on Healthcare, Education, Mobile and Cloud, Data Cantres, Business Solutions and Multi-Tenant environments.
Regional Marketing Manager, Bethan Thompson was excited to share the space, saying,
“Our team is over the moon with the new space and has already hosted our first key Channel Partner sales team in the space this week – with 20 of the team from North joining us for a fully interactive sales training day.
“I really want to thank everyone who helped to design and build the space – Gordon Swallow, Joseph Mah, James Rose, Guy Richards, Grant Harrison and Matt Wills have all been key to getting The Hub up and running.”
Sales Manager, Gordon Swallow is excited to connect with more customers, he says,
“Gallagher has always prided itself on how our Command Centre solution is a platform for integration. Increasingly we became aware that to really showcase this we needed our own state-of-the-art space to show what we can do, and the idea for The Hub was born!
“Our European HQ in Warwick is in a fantastic location and had the perfect space to create an engaging environment. It offers ease of access to more of our existing and potential customers in the UK and EU; having four international airports within a 1.5-hour drive, just an hour on the train from London and with three national rail stations close by.
“With technology from Gallagher Security and over 20 other industry leading technology partners in one space, we really do have it all under one roof. As well as a 10-engineer training school running in the Training Academy, they can see demonstrations, design their solutions, and learn more about what we do in an integrated security world.”
Gordon ends by saying there is more to come,
“The potential for customer engagement in this space is huge. It will also serve as a major event space for us in our own facility. Following on from the success of our own Integrate 23 and with a capacity of over 150, we plan to host more expo events for customers, channel partners and consultants alike.”
