Acer, one of the world’s largest PC vendors will be hosting a seven day ‘Corporate Lounge’ at Emirates Towers, to engage their partners and customers in a purposeful and focused environment.
Themed “Designed for Touch” – Acer’s channel and partner community can experience and interact with the new and innovative touch devices the PC manufacturer is introducing to the market. Senior executives from Acer will be present and available at the lounge to meet with partners and customers and cement possible business ventures and strengthen existing relationships.
The Corporate Lounge is another of Acer’s industry leading channel incentives for 2013, and will take place from 2 October to 8 October from 10:00 am – 17:00 pm providing an environment for business meetings and networking opportunities.
“The corporate lounge will allow for direct interaction with our valued channel partners. Acer is committed to addressing all business concerns, and to facilitate their growth,” said Amin Mortazavi, Vice President, Acer Computer, Middle East and Africa.
Continuing to focus on more intuitive and natural user experience, Acer devices feature full Touch & Type duality — the best productivity and content consumption in the market. At the lounge, visitors will see a range of touch and type devices, as well as areas dedicated to education, and gaming.
The Aspire R7, a revolutionary 39.6 cm (15.6”) notebook that redefine the touch and type computing experience, will be Acer’s star attraction. Featuring a full HD 1920×1080 touch screen, the Aspire R7 is made for the new computing lifestyle, which increasingly combines touching and typing.
It features a repositioned keyboard and a revolutionary “Ezel Hinge” that moves the display forward and into different positions, the R7 makes the combination of touching the screen and using the keyboard more intuitive and natural. Its ergonomic design allows users to explore and determine their own preferred way to interact with technology.
The Acer Aspire R7 lets consumers transform their notebook into the shape that best delivers an immersive content experience based on their usage needs. With four modes of operation, the R7 can easily be used as a traditional notebook, a table top pad, a display, or switched into “Ezel” mode, allowing the screen to float over the keyboard at various angles. This allows users to work where they want and how they want — seated or standing, at a desk or with it on their lap.
The Acer Aspire S7 Series, amongst the thinnest and lightest Ultrabooks™ will also be on show at the lounge, these ultra-mobile devices have been hailed as one of the most exciting Windows 8-based touch Ultrabooks in the market.
The S7 is an iconic combination of power and beauty. The use of straight lines, glossy white glass, electroluminescent lighting and anodized aluminium has culminated in an Ultrabook that champions both cutting-edge technology and innovative design. The dual torque hinge and Acer Green Instant On / Always Connect features ensure the ultimate in control and seamless usability.
Also on display will be the Iconia W3 tablet, the industry’s first full-featured 8.1-inch tablet running Windows 8, bringing entertainment and full PC capabilities into a single hand. Further solidifying its spot as the ultimate mobile companion, the Acer Iconia W3 comes pre-installed with Microsoft Office Home & Student 2013.
The Iconia W3 carefully considers the human element with a design that is compact enough to use comfortably in one hand for reading and web browsing, yet sports a screen large enough for both productivity and entertainment. As a result, it’s ideal for business people, students and families who already use programs such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote for school and work.
The Iconia W3’s design makes it incredibly useful for productivity in several different ways. The slim and sleek device weighs only 540 grams and measures only 11.35 mm thin, so it’s easy to take anywhere. The device pairs with an optional full-size Bluetooth keyboard that holds the tablet upright for typing and then conveniently docks to the tablet to lay flat for easy transportation while protecting the screen.
