As our company continues to invest in the Asia market and build our market presence, Emulex participated in the COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2010 expo, the biggest ICT industry purchase expo in Asia and the second biggest in the world.
As they recover from the financial crisis, businesses share a positive attitude toward the market’s prospects. Thanks to the improving atmosphere, the COMPUTEX TAIPEI expo, which also enjoys its 30th anniversary, attracted the largest number of exhibitors this year.

These products satisfy the growing needs of enterprises for cloud computing, data center virtualization, storage networking and data security.
he Emulex booth was decorated with bright colors and a streamlined design, which fostered a straightforward, but deep, impression to the visitors. To attract more visitors and promote the Emulex brand, the marketing team creatively hired knowledgeable and pleasant booth attendees to walk around in the expo with Emulex-branded balloons. This lively demonstration highlighted Emulex brand presence throughout the expo. As one of the leading brands of the world’s IT industry, Emulex adopted a friendly way to directly communicate with its customers from the Asian market, exchange information and expand customer interaction. In addition, Emulex also cooperated with other exhibitors with the aim to build relationships with other storage and networking manufacturers, such as Technology, Inc.、Accusys and Thecus. By closely cooperating with local businesses in our go-to-market efforts, we plan to generate solutions more suited for the local market needs.
