Pixim’s Partner Program achieves great success in its first year
Pixim offers its Partners ways to enhance the success of their video security offerings based on Pixim’s Digital Pixel System® technology
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.—March 3, 2009—Pixim Inc., a leading provider of image sensors and processors for enterprise security cameras, announces its Pixim Partner program has achieved strong success in its first year. More than 90 companies have begun taking advantage of the program, which is designed to ensure that today’s video security market is served by best-in-class solutions.
“Pixim’s Partner Program is unique in both the breadth of the program and Pixim’s position in the value chain,” said Jennifer Martin, manager of worldwide channel programs at Pixim. “We are the only component (as opposed to a total-solution) manufacturer with such a program, and we are the only ones reaching so far back and forward into the channel – spanning the full range from developer and board-level partners all the way to partners that sell directly to end users.”
The Pixim Partner Program is part of Pixim’s award-winning Channel Program. The Partner Program gives Partners access to services and tools to help enhance their success at selling offerings based on Pixim’s breakthrough Digital Pixel System® technology.
“Pixim understands that our success is intimately intertwined with the success of our partners, and we want to do everything possible to enhance their efforts,” Martin said. “The Pixim Partner Program represents a natural extension of our established commitment to deliver superior imaging products in conjunction with attentive and highly personalized technical and account services to our partners.”
Partner Program builds on Pixim’s award-winning Channel Program
Pixim’s initial Channel Program, launched in early 2008, was quickly recognized by Frost & Sullivan for its market effectiveness. Pixim invested in a dedicated channel marketing team, established a Partner Portal on its website (www.pixim.com) and began sending out a regular e-newsletter to its channel partners. In July 2008, Pixim welcomed industry veteran Jennifer Martin as manager of worldwide channel programs. Martin previously served as vice president of vendor technology and education for PSA Security Network – the world’s largest electronic security cooperative – where she was responsible for managing channel and educational programs for PSA vendors and integrators. Since initiating its Partner Program, Pixim has continued to create additional channel marketing tools, expanded its presence at trade shows, launched an aggressive advertising campaign and focused heavily on training programs.
- Pixim has provided training for thousands of people through on-site presentations and nearly bi-weekly webinars. Audience attendees have included end users, system integrators, dealers, specifiers of security systems, and technical and marketing teams among Pixim’s System, Development and Technology Partners.
- Hundreds of companies regularly access Pixim’s Partner Portal and its extensive Resource Kit.
- Interest in Pixim has skyrocketed, as evidenced by subscriptions to the monthly e-newsletter, whose mailing list has grown from 500 to more than 12,000 individuals – a 24-fold increase.
“The Pixim Partner Program positions us even better to support the members of the growing network of companies who contribute to – and can directly benefit from – the success of Pixim’s Digital Pixel System technology,” said Martin.

About Pixim
Pixim Inc. has developed an imaging technology that revolutionizes the way video cameras capture and process images. Unlike traditional cameras, where each pixel cannot adjust to highlights and lowlights in the same scene, Pixim’s patented Digital Pixel System® technology empowers hundreds of thousands of pixels to act like individual cameras constantly self-adjusting. This all-digital system enables Pixim-powered cameras to efficiently capture the whole picture, regardless of lighting condition or application – thus securing the highest resolution, natural color and clarity, while automatically eliminating image-compromising visual noise (e.g., glare, reflections). The result is more than superb image quality; it is accurate, actionable information that gives users the strength of certainty.
Pixim chipsets are incorporated into hundreds of thousands of security cameras installed around the world. Visit www.pixim.com/cameras for a complete listing of Pixim-based cameras.
