RapidIO Connections - April 2003
Marketing Working Group Update
Hitting the road with RapidIO
The RapidIO Trade Association isn't about waiting for OEMs to come to us to
find out about RapidIO. In fact we're not waiting at all. We're taking
RapidIO to them.
Using input received from members, the Marketing Working Group has developed
a targeted list of the Top 10 OEMs and we're setting up visits to their
premises to showcase RapidIO. At these events - which kicked-off in February
with a visit to Siemens in Germany, coordinated through Voxbit, and are
continuing in both North America and Europe in the spring and summer of
2003- we will meet with OEM's technical teams to educate them about RapidIO.
The events are interactive with presentations and hands-on demonstrations.
Vendor showcases are also part of the agenda and give RapidIO Trade
Association member companies an opportunity to talk one-on-one about your
products and services. This initiative will drive the RapidIO standard, and
as an added bonus it will get you some quality face-time with your customers
and prospects. To get involved in the Top 10 OEM Campaign and learn how your
company can make an impact, please contact:
