webqem is launching maxoom in Malaysia this October with a free seminar showcasing maxoom. Operations Director, Larry, will be flying to Kuala Lumpur to join webqem Asia Business Development Manager, Daniel Ong, who will be presenting for this launch seminar. The seminar will demonstrate the key functionality of maxoom with some excellent examples, such as the ability to instantly create multiple images sizes from the single master image.

The seminar will be running next week on Wednesday 28th Oct, from 10am to 11.30am. It is being held at: The Royale Bintang Kuala Lumpur, 17-21 Jalan Bukit Bintang, 855100 Kuala Lumpur. If you would like to attend, please reserve your place by calling us on +65 9179 9527 or send an email to danielo@webqem.com. This seminar is coinciding with the connect pro seminar which is running the day before, so why not come to both.

webqem & Adobe teamed up to host a 90 minute seminar on shortening sales cycles and lowering selling costs via Adobe Connect Pro. Larry was the primary speaker at this free seminar and took sales and marketing people through the many ways that Connect Pro can benefit an organisation. Some of these benefits were: dramatically reducing sales and marketing costs, how to qualifying prospects quicker, and speeding up the sales process through frequent meetings.

Like the other seminar held by webqem that week, this one was successful and webqem is likely to be holding more seminars like this one in Hong Kong. Keep eye out on this blog for upcoming seminars.

In Hong Kong last week, webqem and Asiasoft hosted a free seminar on Adobe Connect Pro . IT directors from companies in Hong Kong were invited to join webqem Operations Director, Larry, for a 90 minute seminar on driving down costs in eLearning and conference using Adobe’s Acrobat Connect Pro. All attendees were shown how they can securely stay connected to people from all over the globe, as well as communicate with greater frequency and higher quality.

The seminar was very successful and webqem is likely to run similar seminars next year, so be sure to keep an eye out.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the first many maxoom online seminars. We were overwhelmed by the number of people that attended and by the amount of interest generated.

For those of you that were unable to attend, you missed out on a quality presentation by our operations director, Larry Adler. Larry used a Connect Pro Meeting room to show off the capabilities of the maxoom software, along with useful demonstration videos.

Thankfully we were able to record the meeting, so if you did miss it, we have a recording available now. Enjoy.

webqem had the pleasure of exhibiting at the Medical Technology Association of Australia (MTAA) 2009 conference at Star City Casino. We were situated next to the windows and had a picturesque view of the Sydney’s Darling Harbour. At the exhibition, we showed off some of our cooler technologies such as Connect Pro and maxoom, in particular the 3D spin & zoom. webqem was privaleged to be assigned by the MTAA to prepare 3D spins of some of their award winning medical technology. The final presentation was outstanding.

webqem’s operation director, Larry Adler, had the privilege of speaking at one of the MTAA’s workshops, where he spoke on the topic of ‘Delivering professional initiatives to build workforce capacity’. Larry’s input was speaking about about how the MTAA use Connect Pro to their advantage.

Thank you to the MTAA for inviting Larry to speak and webqem to exhibit at their 2009 conference.
