HNA Technology and Ingram Micro Hold Strategic Workshop in Paris

HNA Group acquired Ingram Micro in December 2016, creating a global, one-stop provider of logistics and supply chain solutions and services. The June 29 Strategic Workshop was held as part of HNA Paris International Week, a week-long series of events hosted by HNA Group to celebrate its global platform.

Eric Tong, Chairman of HNA Tech and a Member of the Board of Directors of HNA Group, said, "We were pleased to come together with Ingram Micro in Paris to share ideas and explore how we can leverage the combined power of our global platforms to help companies around the world build an innovation ecosystem without borders or limits. Yesterday's Workshop exemplifies the type of collaborative, productive, and mutually beneficial relationship between HNA and Ingram Micro, which will help enterprises both inside and outside of China realize the promise of technology and capitalize on global buying and selling opportunities in this new digital era."

Alain Monie, CEO of Ingram Micro, said, "Our partnership with HNA is allowing us to become an even more valuable provider of services and solutions to our customers around the world, and we remain energized and excited about the future as a member of the HNA family. The Workshop gave us the opportunity to showcase and discuss some of Ingram Micro's recent investments and growing capabilities across our portfolio and to explore new potential areas of innovation and collaboration with HNA."
