LONDON, England – 2 May 2006 –Interwoven, Inc. (Nasdaq: IWOV), providers of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions for business, today announced that growing demand for their solutions throughout Europe has led Interwoven to open new, larger European Headquarters in the City of London. Interwoven executives will introduce their new headquarters offices by hosting clients, partners, and news media at a launch event on its roof-top balcony Thursday 4 May 2006, featuring food, drink, and entertainment. The larger offices are a result of a surge of European interest across all Interwoven solution areas, including solutions for financial institutions, legal firms, and other professional services firms, as well as the Interwoven Customer Experience Solution.
Interwoven's recently-introduced Customer Experience Solution enables the consistent global delivery of persuasive content, resulting in higher customer satisfaction, increased brand consistency, reduced time-to-market for product launches and campaigns, and increased operational efficiencies. Unlike point technologies that address only parts of the customer experience process, the Interwoven Customer Experience Solution optimises the quality of customer interactions across all touchpoints (the interaction points where a company touches a customer, such as print brochures, press releases, email messages, websites, contact centers, retail stores, television adverts, and product packaging) and across all geographies.
In addition to increased demand for the Interwoven Customer Experience Solution, the company have seen increased sales in the U.K. and Europe of their dedicated solutions for the financial services industry (such as their new Scrittura BuySide Solution, which Interwoven created in collaboration with several of the world's largest hedge funds) and for professional services firms such as legal firms and accounting firms.Interwoven enable professional services firms to manage their entire client engagement lifecycle by organising all client-related documents, email, and paper so that it can be secured, retrieved, shared, audited, and disposed according to the firm's policies.
"We are pleased that our continuing growth in Europe is leading us to expand our offices," said Erik Hansen, Interwoven's senior vice president and general manager of EMEA operations. "Our new offices are in the heart of Europe's biggest financial centre, so our headquarters will be convenient for many nearby clients, especially leading legal and financial services firms."
