Business Centre Association
Annual Gala Awards

November 2006 saw Centrix return once again to the Business Centre Association Annual Gala Awards Dinner evening. As winners in two previous years this is an exciting event for Centrix and a great chance to meet with customers and industry colleagues alike.

With the awards hotly contended, as always, it was fantastic to hear Phoenix Broadband's name announced as this year's winner of the bca "Trade Supplier of the Year". The award is given to a provider of services or products that support the operation of member centres, allowing them to provide a bespoke service to their clients.

Medusa is a unique tool designed to implement an Internet business model for business centres and delivers ISP-grade Internet services, yet can be used by any centre staff member for billing, reporting, and provisioning of multiple levels of service or "service plans".

Tony Freeth a director at PBL comments: - "The award is a milestone for our company. As we start to progress internationally in Europe and the USA, it is wonderful to have our work in the UK recognised by the members of the worlds leading trade association. Next year we have some innovative and exciting new products to release to the industry all aimed at increasing revenue for our business centre customers. We look forward to working with the industry through the bca to achieve this goal."
