Wacom today announces a partnership with Square Group to open its first Experience Centre sales outlet in High Wycombe. Launching on Thursday 7th November, the store will be a one-stop-shop and solution centre for everything Wacom, providing a pleasant and professional environment with knowledgeable staff and live demonstrations.

The new Experience Centre will have the full range of Wacom products on display including the recently launched Cintiq Companion creative tablets that enable users to work wherever they want, as well as the new line-up of Intuos pen tablets aimed at both professionals and amateurs. In addition, a brand ambassador will be available for customer queries at all times including Saturdays, and there will be the use of state-of-the-art training facilities.

Chris van Roosmalen, general sales manager, Benelux, UK and Ireland, says: “This is an exciting opportunity for Wacom to work with a trusted partner and sales team already well versed in Wacom technology and products. For us, it’s a brand new concept that will enable us to communicate directly with end users, enabling them to interact with our products and technology while considering their purchase.”

Darren King, managing director at Square Group Ltd, states: “We’re happy to be partnering with Wacom to build the UK’s first Wacom Experience Centre. Wacom products have long been a staple of Square’s business and the opportunity to work closer with this presigious brand is very exciting. The ability for customers to get hands on with these products is very important and we’re proud to be able to offer that on all their lines.”

On opening day, there will be a prize draw offering customers the chance to win a Cintiq 13HD. In addition, a live caricaturist will be in-store, drawing digital portraits.
