Steatite specialises in the supply of long-life embedded solutions, custom systems and other related products to business and industrial customers. The achievement of Gold Level Partner status is recognition of the company’s ability to demonstrate excellence in the design, build and support of these products. Microsoft Gold Partners have ongoing access to a valuable set of benefits, including technical and marketing resources, training and support, access to a Microsoft technical services coordinator and to the Partner Knowledge Base. Steatite will now also have priority listing in Microsoft directories and several other top-level benefits.
Partner level participation starts at Registered Level, with additional resources available to Silver Level and Gold Level participants. Windows Embedded Partners must meet certain requirements in order to maintain their registered Gold status.

Commenting on the status and what it means to Steatite’s customers, Ashley Shone, Product Manager, for the Embedded division said:

“Steatite is very proud of this achievement and the speed with which it was obtained; going from registered partner to gold in just 18 months. We have set the bar very high and will continue to push boundaries and excel wherever possible.”  

Manoj Rami, Senior Marketing Manager, Microsoft Windows Embedded Business Group said “We are pleased to see Steatite achieve Gold Level Partner status,”  “Microsoft’s Windows Embedded Partner Program is dedicated to providing partners with increased business opportunity, market awareness and technology advice. Gold Level Status recognises partners committed to excellence in Windows Embedded technologies.”
