Nstein Technologies Partners with Maquimpres

Thursday 05. November 2009 - Spanish publishing solutions firm has over 40 years experience and an "outstanding reputation".

Nstein Technologies Inc. www.nstein.com (TSX-V: EIN), a leader in digital content management solutions for information-rich enterprises, today announced that it had signed a partnership deal with Barcelona-based publishing solutions company, Maquimpres. Founded in 1966, Maquimpres has demonstrated leadership in providing equipment for the Portuguese and Spanish publishing industry.

“With more than 40 years experience providing equipment and IT solutions to publishers,” said Nstein Managing Director (Europe) Louis Mousseau, “Maquimpres is an ideal partner for Nstein to work with in order to grow our presence in Spain and Portugal.”

Maquimpres has represented major equipment and software manufacturers over the years, including Funkinform, Agfa, Atex, ImpoMaq, Sun Microsystems, Goss, and Ferag. It has offered a wide-range of solutions to leading Spanish and Portuguese publishers such as El Mundo, La Vanguardia, Grup el Punt, Grupo Zeta, Antena3, and Vocento.

“In Maquimpres, we saw a proven market leader with a great reputation for providing technical solutions to the publishing sector,” continued Mousseau, “They have outstanding recognition in the marketplace, supplying their customers with more than just equipment; they offer top-to-bottom consultation on workflow, editorial systems and advertising solutions. It seemed only natural for Nstein to partner with them to compliment their offerings with digital solutions.”

“Indeed,” agreed Maquimpres Commercial Director Joan Raventos, “Nstein’s solutions present us an opportunity to expand into digital markets. Nstein is at the foundation of our digital strategy, and we think our respective offerings complement each other very nicely.”

“Further,” continued Raventos, “the Spanish market is rapidly moving to consume more and more of its content online. The market here is ripe for text analytics, digital asset management and web content management solutions. Publishers are quickly realizing the importance of having an intelligent digital strategy, as print revenues stagnate and online revenues grow.

“And of course,” concluded Raventos, “the fact that Nstein has proven success with Spanish publishers was an important factor in our deciding to partner with them. Nstein’s work with Impremedia, the largest Spanish-language media conglomerate in the United States, is a testament to the robust, multilingual capabilities of Nstein’s solutions.”

“We look forward to a long, mutually beneficial partnership,” finished Mousseau.
