2014 Open House/Client Appreciation Event

In early December, Parallel Technologies opened its doors to valued customers and partners for the 2014 Client Appreciation event.

Each year, the Parallel Technologies Warehouse is transformed into somewhat of a bistro type setting where guests can have a good time and socialize. As noted by Dale Klein, President & CEO of Parallel Technologies: "This event is a great time to connect with clients and key partners in a more personal manner; which is always a good thing."
