ANNOUNCEMENTS
LizardTech®
, a provider of software
solutions for managing and distribut-
ing geospatial content, has expanded its
global presence with several new busi-
ness partnerships and product purchas-
es during the first half of 2015.
New partnerships established this
year include EMi Grup in Turkey, Bei-
jing Space Eye Innovation Technology
Co. in China, Esri Muscat in Oman, and
the Cuminas Corporation in Japan. Ad-
ditionally, Sani International of Canada
re-committed to LizardTech product dis-
tribution in Canada and the Caribbean.
LizardTech’s international relationships
outside of the Americas are managed
by the geospatial sales and marketing
agency, Quarry One Eleven, based in
Guildford, UK.
Quarry One Eleven Founder Alistair
Maclenan had this to say about the re-
cent activity: “We are delighted with the
progress we have made in promoting
LizardTech’s remarkable MrSID-based
software throughout the European, Afri-
can and Middle Eastern market places
and beyond into Asia Pacific.”
Maclenan went on to say “LizardTech
is a great client that understands the
power of marketing and in-region rep-
resentation. Their support has been a
huge factor in the partnership and sales
successes we have seen for their image
compression, preparation and distribu-
tion products.”
During the last six months, national
governments, energy organizations and
infrastructure owners and operators
have all bought LizardTech software in
countries such as Canada, Sweden, Nor-
way, Germany, United Kingdom, Spain,
South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Turkey,
Oman, Australia and the Philippines.
Jeff Young, who directs Global Busi-
ness Development at LizardTech, stated:
“We have had an exciting first half of the
year which illustrates that our products
are in demand all over the world. These
sales validate the sustainability of Liz-
ardTech over the last 23 years through
partnerships in multiple continents. We
take pride in our customer’s loyalty and
continued commitment to our MrSID im-
age compression format.”
