Serif (Europe) Ltd Nottingham, UK 22 January 2007 PRESS RELEASE Serif Announces Second Partnership in France New partnership extends availability of Serif software in France Serif (Europe) Ltd, the UK’s leading independent desktop publishing, design and graphics software developer, and Avanquest France, have partnered to offer Serif software through corporate and educational channels in France. Building on their successful partnership with Micro Application in 2002, who continue to distribute Serif software into the retail channel, Serif are delighted to announce that their new agreement with Avanquest France will further extend their presence in France. Avanquest France will promote and distribute a range of Serif branded, French-language versions, including PagePlus 11, PhotoPlus 10, DrawPlus 8 and WebPlus 10, through multi-user corporate and educational channels and provide after sales care and technical support to these markets. Micro Application will continue to be Serif’s exclusive distributor of French-language Serif software through the retail channel. Serif software has become extremely popular in the UK, winning over 100 awards from the UK’s computing press, and Serif hope to emulate this success in France, through corporate, educational and retail channels as a result of their partnerships with both Avanquest France and Micro Application. “Serif’s partnership with Avanquest France, who have a very strong reputation for multi-user licensing, will greatly complement our existing partnership with Micro Application, who have achieved significant successes in the retail market,” said Gary Bates, Serif’s Managing Director. “We hope that the combination of these partnerships will further raise Serif’s profile, so that even more business, educational and home computer users can take advantage of our powerful, easy-to-use and affordable design and graphics software.” End For further information please contact: Meg Sharp.
