How LG is Delivering Innovative IT Solutions to Organisations across the Education Sector
by Barrie Guy, general manager Business to Business Group, LG Business Solutions
Published:  29 January, 2010

With resources scarce and budgets currently tight for peripherals and networking equipment across the UK’s education sector, schools, colleges and universities need to ensure that they target their spending on electronic equipment very deliberately and diligently in order to ensure that they get the best possible  return from their investment. 

To meet these needs LG Business Solutions is strengthening its focus on education. Through its newly created Business-to-Business Group, the company is delivering a comprehensive set of solutions, which together are enabling schools, colleges and universities to deliver more learning value from their ICT budgets.

In the context of education, one of the company’s most important solution sets is its Network Monitor package. In a typical implementation, this enables up to 10 monitors to be connected to one host PC, each running independent sessions, while an integrated USB hub allows students to work using USB memory sticks at each Network Monitor, ensuring there is a professionally transparent approach to all students’ work, which does not overload the system. In addition, the use of network cards enables teachers to control multiple pupil screens from one PC, allowing them to restrict access to content and keep pupils focused on a single learning task.

Other important LG solutions that bring benefits across the education sector include SuperSign, an advanced solution for digital signage that enables schools and colleges to display important visitor information, while helping to motivate and highlight pupil achievement and 65-inch Interactive Screen, an innovative new solution set to ultimately replace traditional teaching methods like overhead projectors and interactive whiteboards.

This year sees the company make its debut appearance at BETT (Stand U128). And it plans to use the opportunity to highlight its growing focus on the education market and to demonstrate its ability to provide more access to ICT solutions for more learners and to drive the development of interactive teaching across the education sector. 

LG will be demonstrating many of its solutions for the sector at the show ranging from monitors to network displays; educational projectors, digital signage solutions, networked storage and educational security products. The company will also be sponsoring and speaking at the Innovation Seminar Theatre during the show.

Moving forward, LG’s focus on education is likely to increase still further. The company has recently seen strong growth in volume sales into the sector. And as part of its expansion drive, it plans to recruit UK resellers with expertise in education and to launch further solutions specifically dedicated to the market.
