Latin America. Palermitano Solutions is a new company in the market but that has a great track record in technology. It was founded in 2015 by Jerónimo Gallo, the current president of the company, who owned One Click, an authorized reseller store of Apple products in Argentina.
"At that time its technicians had the opportunity to visit the offices of a major global technology company in Argentina. During this visit, the client told them that he needed maintenance and installation of his videoconferencing rooms and Jerónimo decided to found the company Palermitano Solutions with that objective, "said Dardo Chiesa, Global Operations Manager of Palermitano Solutions, in conversation with AVI LATINOAMÉRICA.
After that opportunity, the company began to generate design and commissioning of audio and video systems for various customers in the country and extended its operations to Chile, Peru, Colombia, Mexico and the United States with the aim of providing global customers with the same quality of service throughout the region of the American continent, mainly in the corporate sector. To a lesser extent the educational, home, hotel, transport and health sectors.
Dardo Chiesa commented that "the progress of the audiovisual industry in Argentina has increased in recent years. Although both the Argentine economy and that of the rest of the Latin American countries make audiovisual solutions sometimes difficult to implement, I believe that manufacturers are managing to simplify systems, thus reducing costs and thus being able to offer solutions much more adapted to this type of market. "
Linking to ConsorcioTec
The representative of Palermitano Solutions stressed that the company's headquarters in the United States has been part of the USAV group for a few years and they were always interested in seeing this model replicated in LATAM. "We also believe that partnership networks between integrators specialized in different types of markets throughout the continent are essential to be able to provide better quality of service covering a greater spectrum of technologies available to our customers."
With their link to ConsorcioTec, they hope to be able to obtain discounts on the purchase of group equipment, have support from a community that is willing to help and improve business results for all involved, get strategic allies who need a specialist in the implementation of audio and video systems.
Uncertainty due to Covid-19
On the situation generated by Covid-19, he mentioned that there is great uncertainty in all areas of life. "We like to believe that despite the clear negative impact, there is an opportunity for the industry as audiovisual systems are the main solution for remote communication in all sectors of society. I believe that the current health situation has advanced the process of assimilation of new audiovisual technologies in society, today videoconferencing is already being used massively and with it a need that was not so present before".
And since they were already used to remote work, they didn't have a big impact on the way they worked within the company. "If it is true that we turn to a 100% home office modality, but it is something that in a company like ours occurs naturally. Something we did was to take advantage of our knowledge to offer advice for free to companies and individuals in the difficulties they had at the beginning of the quarantine so that those who were not accustomed to these technologies go through a more fluid process. In addition, we take advantage of this moment to rethink the structure of our team, rethinking the management and giving a more professional touch to the day to day in the company", concluded Dardo Chiesa.
