Ready for a new decade – that was 2019 at spo-comm

spo-comm: Hello first and thank you for taking the time. Tell us, how was 2019 for you?

Michael Sporrer: Pleasing, yes, and also quite successful. Our business figures are impressive. We acquired exciting new customers and deepened existing relationships. We owe this not least to our employees. The whole team really did a great job.

spo-comm: Speaking of the team... we've grown again!

Michael Sporrer: Exactly. Two new trainees, Fabian and Felix, joined our production and service department in September. It has already become clear that the two have a lot to offer. Our marketing department is also in a really good position again and has been able to handle several major projects... But Bernd would perhaps prefer to tell you about that himself.

Bernd Moosmüller: (laughs) Of course. After returning to ISE in Amsterdam in February, we organized an event at the spo-comm headquarters for the first time this summer. As part of the Nuremberg Digital Festival, we hosted presentations on artificial intelligence and Nvidia CUDA . You shouldn't praise yourself, but we, or rather our marketing department, did a really great job organizing it. The feedback from the participants was also very positive across the board. It really makes you want more.

spo-comm: It was also a really cool thing. Are there any concrete plans for further events?

Bernd Moosmüller: I have lots of ideas. Let's see what we can implement. In any case, we will be back at ISE in February. 

spo-comm: Unfortunately, this will be the last time it takes place in Amsterdam and will then move to Barcelona. What will there be to see at our stand?

Michael Sporrer: We have two great new products with us. On the one hand, the successor to our Windbox 2 series is already in the starting blocks. And secondly, there will finally be a new model for ultra high-performance high-end graphics. If you know our products, you can probably already guess what we are talking about. Starts with "K"...

spo-comm:...and ends with "UMO", right? I also heard something about Nvidia Turing?

Michael Sporrer: (laughs) You're not entirely wrong. More details at the beginning of 2020. We're all really looking forward to it!

spo-comm: Are there any other new products planned for next year?

Michael Sporrer: Yes, we are planning to include Panel PCs in our range again. During our visit to Taiwan in October, we have already spoken to various existing and potential partners.

Bernd Moosmüller: It's not easy, of course. As with all our products, we want to end up with a PC that is configurable and can be individually tailored to the applications and needs of our customers.

Michael Sporrer: But we are on the right track and will hopefully be able to present something new soon.

spo-comm: And what else can we look forward to in 2020?

Michael Sporrer: Of course, we are working hard on other topics in the background. We are currently renewing our entire IT infrastructure internally. In addition to faster servers, this also includes switching to cloud-based solutions. This allows our employees to work more and more independently and flexibly. This is particularly important for home offices and business trips.

Bernd Moosmüller: And then there's the big issue of the website. We have been busy developing, testing and designing for months. We hope to go live with our new webshop at the beginning of next year. And we can look forward to more than just a modern and, above all, responsive design. There will also be some new features that will make our customers' lives much easier.

spo-comm: We are already very excited!
