SMART技术公司成立于1987年,位于加拿大阿尔伯达省的卡尔加里市。公司的创始人DavidMartin先生和NancyKnowlton女士是公司成立时仅有的两位员工。公司原是一家从事投影机分销的代理商,但拥有教育背景的Nancy和高新科技人员出身的David满怀着对教育事业的热爱之情以及本着“科技就是力量”的坚定信念,毅然决定将公司的所有收入投入研发一种能够提供团队协作和即时信息共享的互动触摸式产品。从最开始的设想概念到产品的问世,期间遇到了产品在技术、易用性、材料筛选和触摸精确度计算等方面的种种困难。经过反复的测试和改进,DavidMartin先生终于在1991年发明了全球首台基于互动理念的新型触摸式产品,交互式白板从此诞生。
1992年SMART公司与美国电脑巨头英特尔公司结成战略联盟,联合进行项目开发。该项目的开展有利的推动了SMART产品的有效应用,并为SMART公司在发展的道路上打下了扎实的基础。此后20年来SMART研发出一系列广受欢迎的交互式产品,并具备了最具完善的交互式产品线。公司员工已从早期的2人迅速增加至1200多名员工,在加拿大渥太华和卡尔加里设有制造工厂,在德国波恩、日本东京、美国纽约和华盛顿以及中国上海设有销售办事处。公司获得ISO和WQC世界教具联合会质量特许认证和欧盟HOS环保权威体系认证,并在各国拥有多项技术专利权。SMART公司的快速发展在最初5年累计年增长率为26%,此后10年的累计年增长率达41%。SMART交互式白板系列凭借无与伦比的产品质量、多功能性和易用性成为当今应用最广泛的交互式白板,从而SMARTBoard也成为了全球各国用户称呼交互式白板的代名词。
2007年,面对与日俱增的产品需求量,致使原有的工厂已经无法满足需求。同年10月,SMART扩建了位于加拿大安大略省渥太华市的工厂,也是当今最大最先进交互式白板制造基地,工厂占地面积高达24,155平方米(26万平方英尺),同时在中国苏州设立了组装工厂。并将于2008年末在加拿大卡尔加里市建成一个18.5万平方英尺拥有当前最名副其实的SMART互动协作办公大楼。2008年8月12日,随着第一百万台SMARTBoard交互式白板从其渥太华生产线的下线,SMART达到公司发展历程中的重要里程碑,更意味着全球交互式白板时代的来临。公司的成功源于不懈的创新和努力,交互式白板产品类别的2008年上半年数据显示,SMART在这一类别的全球市场占有率已从2007年的45.5%升至53.3%。
Smart technologies was founded in 1987 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The founders of the company, Mr. David Martin and Ms. Nancy Knowlton, were the only two employees when the company was founded. The company used to be an agent engaged in projector distribution, but Nancy with education background and David from high-tech personnel are full of love for education and the firm belief that "technology is power", resolutely decided to invest all the company's income in the research and development of an interactive touch product that can provide team cooperation and instant information sharing. From the initial conception to the appearance of the product, there are many difficulties in technology, usability, material selection and touch accuracy calculation of the product. After repeated tests and improvements, Mr. David Martin finally invented the world's first new touch product based on the concept of interaction in 1991, and the interactive whiteboard was born. In 1992, smart company formed a strategic alliance with Intel Corporation, an American computer giant, to jointly develop projects. The implementation of the project has promoted the effective application of smart products and laid a solid foundation for smart company on the road of development. In the next 20 years, smart has developed a series of popular interactive products, and has the most complete interactive product line. The company's employees have rapidly increased from the early two to more than 1200 employees, with manufacturing plants in Ottawa and Calgary, Canada, and sales offices in Bonn, Germany, Tokyo, Japan, New York, Washington and Shanghai, China. The company has obtained ISO and WQC world teaching aids Federation quality licensing certification and EU HOS environmental protection authority system certification, and has a number of technical patents in various countries. Smart's rapid growth rate was 26% in the first five years and 41% in the next 10 years. Smart Interactive Whiteboard series with unparalleled product quality, versatility and ease of use has become the most widely used interactive whiteboard, so smartboard has also become a synonym for users around the world to call interactive whiteboard. In 2007, facing the increasing demand for products, the original factory has been unable to meet the demand. In October of the same year, smart expanded its factory in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is also the largest and most advanced interactive whiteboard manufacturing base today. The factory covers an area of 24155 square meters (260000 square feet). At the same time, it has set up an assembly plant in Suzhou, China. In the end of 2008, a 185000 square foot Smart Interactive and collaborative office building will be built in Calgary, Canada. On August 12, 2008, smart reached an important milestone in the company's development process with the first million smart board interactive whiteboard coming from its Ottawa production line, which means the advent of the global interactive whiteboard era. The success of the company stems from unremitting innovation and efforts. According to the data of the first half of 2008 in the interactive whiteboard product category, smart's global market share in this category has increased from 45.5% in 2007 to 53.3%.
