Everything went bold and big, and all who were present went  high spirited as Acer Philippines, Inc. feted its top distributors and resellers during the 2015 edition of the Acer ePinnacle Awards, Acer’s annual awards rites in honor of its top sellers. 

It was grand and swanky as guests went in their best and boldest black attire at the upper-class Chaos Club of Crown Hotel Manila in Parañaque City. The Acer ePinnacle Awards, now on its 8th year, have always been the perfect venue for the top IT giant to thank its partners for making the global tech brand remain a top IT brand in the Philippines despite stiff competition from other more established brands.

Entitled “Bo1d. Celebrating 10 Years of Leadership,” the event was the ultimate “time to shine” for a few distinguished Acer partners who, for the past year, exuded exemplary performance in rising above challenges and be able to successfully prove themselves in terms of sales performance, unmatched marketing strategies, and innovative and truly customer-centric customer efforts in selling Acer’s world-class, top-notch products. 

Among the major winners under the prestigious Distributor of the Year category were Bridge Distribution, Inc., who won a total of four “Distributor of the Year” for Consumer Desktops, 2-in-1 devices, Projectors and Commercial Business, MSI-ECS Philippines as “Distributor of the Year” for Tablets and Smart Phones, and Techtron Systems Corp., who won as “Distributor of the Year” for Consumer Notebooks and Consumer Monitors. 

A special highlight of the awards was the selection of the “Fiercest Male and Female Awards” for the two guests who are dressed boldly for the night. The Fiercest Male award went to James Tan and April Dabasol was the Fiercest Female. 

Acer Philippines General Manager Manuel Wong thanked Acer Philippines’ partners and distributors for another highlight year for the tech titan and for making Acer the top Notebook brand for 10 years and 7 years in Commercial Notebooks. “Thank you once again for making Acer a top brand in the Philippines. With your partnership with us, we will all work hard because we have more to do, and more to achieve. Let’s all achieve to become better and brighter as we continue to be partners with you.” 

Meanwhile, Acer Inc. Chief Executive Officer Jason Chen, who was a special guest and keynote speaker for the event, showcased what’s in store for Acer customers around the world in terms of their newest and boldest innovative devices designed to change the world’s perception of Information Technology.

 It was also the first time that the global CEO attended any award-giving event anywhere in the world where Acer operates, thus giving Acer Philippines that unprecedented, singular distinction.
