Steven Johnson, a President of Ingate Systems, served prior to this as CEO of Abrena, Inc., a business development consulting firm focused on assisting European and N. A. firms expand in the USA. Ingate's heart and soul is housed in its Technology Center, located in Linköping, Sweden. We interviewed Steven on Ingate history, the SIP Trunk Summit at ITEXPO and their partner program.

The interviewer, Suzanne Bowen, noticed Steven Johnson first when she discovered that he was up early as she was every morning ready to work in the lobby. For Steven, it’s because his boss is in Sweden. For Suzanne, it’s because she runs early and then has the peace of thinking, researching and writing before the swarm of phone calls and instant messages begin. Neither one complains about work. SIP is the place to be in 2010.

Ingate was formed in 2001. They were formed specifically to bring SIP to the enterprise, to solve some particular issues related to SIP that occur at the edge of any company network that is trying to bring SIP into that network.

This year 2010 is the seventh time that Ingate has produced the SIP Trunking Workshop series at ITEXPO. It is scheduled Jan. 20-22, 2010. It will include case studies and demos with participants from Avaya, Digium, Ingate itself, Shoretel, VOIPSA, Bandwidth, Cbeyond, Mitel, The SIP School, and more.

Steven explains how Ingate’s partner programs work also. Ingate offers choices such as strategic partners, resellers, distributors, confirmed SIP trunking interoperability partners.
