South African company, WebTec, continues to build its international presence with the appointment of the UK-based company Page Impressions Ltd to develop its sales and distribution channels in the UK and Europe. This move comes two months after the company appointed GSI as its partner in North America.
Page Impressions, headed by John Tomany, former Director of Commercial Development for British Telecom`s Internet & Multimedia Division and SVP of Global Sales for RealNames Corporation, has a broad experience in WebTec`s target market sectors.
"WebTec has developed an excellent range of technologies from Web-based navigation tools through to their groundbreaking WebSoft e-commerce applications to the fast growing mobile applications. Page Impressions is delighted to be able to partner with WebTec to develop these exciting markets," said Tomany, Managing Director of Page Impressions. "We see the development of WebTec`s subscription-based software as a key technology for use in the software publishing and ISP markets to develop new areas of revenue across new and current software portfolios."
Paul Dinsmore, WebTec`s Managing Director, underlined WebTec`s ambitions for the development of the European market: "With the appointment of GSI in North America already beginning to deliver, we were very keen to open up opportunities in Europe. Having worked with John on a number of successful ventures, we viewed the appointment of Page Impressions as an excellent opportunity to build our presence in the UK and Europe."
Page Impressions will be responsible for the development of both direct and indirect channels to market for WebTec`s full range Web-based and telecom solutions. WebTec will support the region from its offices in Johannesburg, but is looking to invest in the necessary infrastructure in Europe as the market develops.
