Tridion Appoints Ion Global as Its First Premier Partner in US Market
to Enable Organizations to Align Web Content and Global Business Strategy
Partnership will Capitalize on Dual Expertise in Launching Global e-Business Initiatives
New York, NY, September 25, 2006 - Tridion, a leading global provider of web content management software solutions, today announced a strategic partnership with Ion Global, an international e-business consultancy, to provide customers with the solutions and technology they need to launch global e-business initiatives.
The partnership will take advantage of Tridions strength in providing web content management solutions that support organizations web site globalization projects and Ion Globals expertise in counseling clients throughout the process of developing multinational e-business endeavors. The emphasis Tridion and Ion Global each place on enabling their customers to align their online content to global business strategy led both companies to partner and therefore extend their already robust offerings. The partnership will allow Ion Global to develop substantial Tridion software implementation capabilities, extending Tridions competence to roll out its WCM software across the US. As a Tridion Premier Partner, Ion Global is committed to having a pool of certified resources with the highest level of expertise around the Tridion offering and work very closely with Tridion in knowledge sharing.
Tridion elected to partner with Ion Global because of its compelling reputation of guiding the Global 2000 throughout the process of creating their global online business initiatives, said Erik Aeyelts Averink, Executive Vice President of Corporate Development, Tridion. We have seen an increase in demand from US companies for web content management software with global capabilities that will allow them to present a unified brand across multiple online channels while maintaining a localized web presence. Our partnership with Ion Global will allow us to offer these companies a more competitive solution across the US and Asia.
Prior to this formal partnership, Tridion and Ion Global have worked on a number of international projects, including one with Emirates Airline to successfully roll out its global internet presence and ensure the usability of its Internet booking engine. With Tridions recent emphasis on the US market, an official relationship with Ion Global is a logical next step to continued project success given each companys strong capabilities in the area of web site globalization.
We have been selecting and deploying web content management solutions for our clients for over a decade, said Wei-Tai Kwok, Managing Director of Ion Global San Francisco. Over the past few years, however, we have seen more of our customers selecting Tridion, particularly for its elegant multilingual, multibrand and multichannel features. Therefore, it is natural for us to take an interest in specializing in Tridion deployments. We look forward to partnering with Tridion to not only help clients plan their e-business projects but to also provide them with the tools they need to execute them.
