Compiere announced
today our expansion into Europe in addition to expanding
Compiere's executive team. Having an office in Germany will allow us
to better serve the Europe, Middle East, and African markets with a
local presence to focus on sales, support and solution delivery for
our channel partners and customers throughout the EMEA region. As
general manager of Compiere EMEA, Yves Sandfort will lead efforts to
further increase our reach and the productivity of our partner
network to our 20+ authorized partners within the EMEA region. With
our expansion into Europe, we will also begin holding training
classes in Europe again with the first class tentatively scheduled
for the June / July timeframe. We will post more details about the
training class on our
website in the next few weeks after we have finalized the dates
and logistics for the training session.
We also announced the addition of three
people joining our executive team in our U.S. corporate office:
- Kyle Rosier, director of sales for
the Americas, will oversee channel activities and lead direct sales
in the Americas.
- Sunny Gosain, vice president of
development and customer support, has global responsibility for
product development, customer support and information technology.
- Bill Freedman, director of
marketing, will lead outbound marketing efforts globally.
When Compiere had only a few people
employees, the number of initiatives we could focus on was very
limited. This expansion gives us the ability to focus on a larger
number of initiatives including more focus on product development,
support, global sales programs, and marketing.
We welcome Yves, Kyle, Sunny, and Bill
to the Compiere team!
