Channel Expo 08: Security vendor says its goal is to be second largest in the world by end of year

AVG has said that it intends to become the second largest security vendor in the world before the end of the year.

Speaking to PC Retail at this year's Channel Expo, the firm said that it was hoping that recent reforms at the company have left it in a strong position to achieve its goal of being the second largest security vendor before the end of the year.


It also revealed that it had put a major investment into the POS it produces as it aims to help its retail and reseller partners increase their add on sales.

As a high street reseller, who recently started selling AVG, we have been astounded by the uptake of the paid for version of what we thought everyone would see as a free product.
