Promethean has announced the ActivPanel 10, its “most adaptable” new interactive flat panel display to enhance enterprise collaboration.
The collaboration solutions business also unveiled the Promethean ActivSuite, a new software solution. Paired with the ActivPanel 10, this combination ensures a straightforward, user-friendly “plug-and-play” panel experience. Promethean stresses that it is designed to meet users’ needs precisely when and where they require it, eliminating any extra hassle, stress, or need for complicated training.
Lance Solomon, Chief Product Officer at Promethean, commented:
This solution gives educators and employees the most freedom and flexibility to teach, present, and collaborate with less interruption. Whatever tech ecosystem you use and enjoy today integrates seamlessly with the new experience.”
Both the ActivPanel10 and the Promethean ActivSuite are scheduled for availability in early 2025.
More Specifics On The New Solutions
Promethean outlines that ActivPanel 10 is specifically designed to prioritise security and adaptability. It allows users to select their preferred operating system, whether Android, Windows, or Chrome. The company adds that its flexible design ensures seamless integration with connected devices, providing a familiar panel experience.
Promethean’s pitch is that educators, employees, and IT admins can rapidly adapt with practically no learning curve, ensuring their investment remains secure and relevant amidst likely tech upgrades. The company says users can straightforwardly update or swap the connected device as needed without purchasing a new panel or overhauling the existing setup.
Promethean conveys that the ActivPanel 10 will be offered in two models and several sizes, complemented by high-quality smart accessories and software that allow users to operate freely in classrooms, offices, conference rooms, and training spaces. The ActivPanel 10 intends to address critical challenges faced by both educators and business professionals, enabling quick and easy interaction with content for a more efficient user experience.
Meanwhile, with Promethean ActivSuite, users can simply access popular Promethean apps on their preferred devices or computers, enhancing flexibility to use the software both on and off the panel.
“We’re confident the new Promethean experience with ActivPanel 10 and Promethean ActivSuite will meet customers where they are,” added Solomon. “It’s the most cost-effective and sustainable way for schools and businesses to have an interactive display that’s always secure and up to date.”
What Else Has Promethean Been Up To Recently?
Promethean has initiated multiple compelling partnerships in recent months.
In July, Promethean entered into a distribution partnership that makes Exertis AV its new authorised distributor in Germany and Austria. Promethean’s new distribution agreement provides educational institutions and business customers with access to its solutions through official distribution partners. Exertis AV is highlighted as a “comprehensive new dealer base” that will strengthen Promethean’s presence in the German and Austrian markets.
This partnership is a strategic fit for Promethean, as Exertis AV is known for its commitment to meeting partners’ needs and its dedication to “going the extra mile” to “inspire” customers. Through this collaboration, Exertis AV will offer a complete range of Promethean technologies, connecting educational and business clients with solutions tailored to their budgets and specific needs.

DisplayNote, a provider of wireless casting and conferencing solutions, will integrate its Launcher app with Promethean’s ActivPanel displays to enhance business communications and improve the meeting room experience.
DisplayNote’s Launcher provides an innovative, secure interface for meeting room displays, allowing users to view calendars, initiate calls, and access content quickly.
