 SUPPORT TO WIN APPOINTS  
 BURCKHARDT TO CHAIRMAN POSITION 
 SIMON BURCKHARDT, THE former  
 Vonage UK MD, has been appointed  
 Chairman of Support to Win, the  
 Fleet based Managed Service and  
 UC experts. Support to Win was  
 recently spun out of Train to Win,  
 the telecoms training company  
 for the channel and have been  
 providing outsourced managed  
 services for the last 2 years to  
 a variety of channel partners  
 and service providers including  
 Gamma, NFON, Chess & Vonage. 
 Simon Burckhardt commented,  
 “I am delighted and honoured to  
 be offered the role of Chairmen  
 of Support to Win. I have always  
 been impressed by Support to  
 Win, who helped us enormously  
 when I was at Vonage. As the UK  
 UC marketplace consolidates I  
 strongly believe the expertise and  
 resources available at companies  
 such as Support to Win will become  
 invaluable to facilitate value  
 creation of any consolidation  
 activity. As Mark Twain once said  
 ‘During the Gold Rush it is a good  
 idea to invest in the picks and  
 shovels!”
