LONDON, May 27 /PRNewswire/ -- European CEO is proud to announce Tandberg, the leading global provider of telepresence and high-definition video conferencing solutions, as its Telepresence Provider of the Year for 2009.

Tandberg was presented with the award for its high-quality telepresence offerings and the pivotal role the company has played in the adoption of telepresence and video conferencing solutions in the European business community.

The award-winning Tanderg Telepresence T3 provides a highly collaborative, interactive meeting experience that enables totally natural face-to-face communication regardless of location. Its high-quality, immersive experience and interoperability makes Tandberg the leader in the telepresence industry. The company is the only vendor that can interoperate with third-party telepresence systems while maintaining the immersive telepresence experience.

Geir Olsen, Tandberg President, Europe, Middle East and Africa, was presented the award in London. He said: Being recognised as the Telepresence Provider of the Year across Europe is highly rewarding, given the hard work we have put in with our partners to deliver a superior customer experience. The challenging economic climate is forcing many organisations to do more with less and telepresence has proven to be a solution that not only enables immediate ROI, but long-term benefits such as increased productivity, faster decision-making, immediate access to experts, and reductions in environmental impacts.
