Laurus Technologies: Symantec’s rookie of the year

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Laurus Technologies, an Itasca, Ill.-based solution provider, won the rookie partner of the year award this morning at Symantec Partner Engage 2008.

Laurus started leading with Symantec products last year and saw its annual Symantec sales increase from $70,000 to $1.5 million. The partner also moved its Wisconsin office into a new building, where Symantec is one of its neighbors.

Symantec COO Enrique Salem presented the award to Todd Wilson, Laurus’ sales director, at the beginning of his keynote address this morning.
