“After establishing our strong leadership among the Enterprise and SMB segment from last 6 years in India, We are now poised to address the consumer segment with our Titanium Brand. India Consumer business, which is pegged at more than 1000 + crore is growing a rapid pace YOY. Trend Micro already has a global leadership position in the consumer segment, which contributes more than 50% of its $1.2 billion revenue. We strongly believe with our strong R&D strength in security domain, we will be providing the consumers in India with a robust security solution across the Windows and Mac platforms,” said Amit Nath, country manager, India & SAARC, Trend Micro.

“We are looking at capturing a 20% consumer market share by 2014. As we understand the Channel segment plays a major role in this consumer business, Trend Micro has already started aligning & strengthening our existing channel partners and also looking at reaching 3000 channel partners by end of this financial year,” he added.

Anupam Rahi was earlier part of Fortune Marketing as Country Head Sales for almost 3 years and was looking after Symantec (Consumer and SMB Boxes) business pan India. He was involved in brand development, strategic consulting and advising new businesses on formation of corporations and business structures, drafting privacy policies and structuring commercial transactions. He has an experience of 13 years in Corporate, Government and Channel Sales in Software Industry (Anti Virus).

Anand Shringi was earlier Channel Sales Manager, Consumer Products & Solutions at Symantec Corporation. His responsibilities included channel capacity planning for the Western region, identifying and developing new partners to maximize revenue for Symantec and selling Symantec Security solutions through the channel. He was also involved in managing the Consumer & Retail sales for Norton product line in India. He possesses an overall experience of 13 years.

“As our go-to-market strategy is to establish Titanium as the leading antivirus solution for the consumers, our marketing strategies have started to address both the channel and consumers for getting the brand share. We are soon launching our 30 city road show across India for the channel partners. Again, as the Indian consumer is fast adapting the Tablets / Smartphone for net access, Trend Micro was the FIRST company to provider FREE Smartphone or Tablet security (Android, IOS, Windows & Symbian platform) with Titanium Maximum Security for consumers having multiple devices apart from PC or Laptop” said Rajat Sahu – Product Marketing manager, India and SAARC, Trend Micro.

In 2011, when industry standards association ProSTEP iViP and some German automotive OEMs began developing the idea of an initiative dedicated to defining and addressing problems and standards for product data management and virtual product creation, Dassault Systèmes joined in to support the creation of the Codex of PLM Openness.

”We are very pleased that Dassault Systèmes supports the idea of the CPO and actively participated in its creation. Dassault Systèmes was one of the major contributors and lead the workgroup defining the glossary definition“, says ProSTEP iViP e. V General Manager Steven Vettermann.

“For 30 years Dassault Systèmes’ executive team has driven PLM relentlessly towards an open, unified collaborative experience for our customers,” said Dominique Florack, Senior Executive Vice President, Products, Research and Development, Dassault Systèmes. “Openness is critical to collaboration and, thus, innovation. Dassault Systèmes is very much in favor of the CPO and actively supports this effort.”

A proponent of openness, Dassault Systèmes has architected its V6 3D Experience platform to take advantage of its long years of research and development in infrastructure protocols and interoperability. The V6 platform’s Web services infrastructure is compliant with a variety of interface standards and supports multiple exchange standards, such as STEP, IGES, FMI, AUTOSAR and JT. From open interoperability between V6 and competitive PDM, CAD and enterprise systems to lots of publicly available APIs, the V6 platform has been developed to support openness.

In the 1990s, Dassault Systèmes created an open, comprehensive development environment called the CATIA Application Architecture (CAA). Buoyed by its success resulting in several third party applications for its V5 platform, the CAA concept of extensibility was enhanced when Dassault Systèmes released its open V6 CAA2 program and made thousands of APIs available to its partner community.

“Our support of interoperability standards between V6 and other CAD, PDM, and enterprise systems has been a key focus over the past years,” continued Florack. “The irresponsible claims of openness and accusations of non-openness have engendered unnecessary fear, uncertainty, and doubt in the industry and have adversely distracted many customers of PLM solutions.”

With this, Dassault Systèmes has officially signaled its willingness to continue supporting openness throughout its valued solutions.

It is a matter of pride for the company when three quarters of the Forbes 500 companies run SAP software. According to SAP, SAP software powers 80 percent of the companies on the Dow Jones Sustainability Index and 85 percent of the top 100 most valued brands in the world.

“When we began in 1972, our vision was to build real time business applications and we did so in close cooperation with our first customers,” said co-founder and SAP Supervisory Board chairman Hasso Plattner. “Today, SAP continues to be the trusted innovator it was then. We are driving intellectual renewal with break-through innovations like the SAP HANA platform for the next generation of real time management of businesses anytime anywhere from any device. And we have also returned to our roots, working closely with customers to make the impossible possible.”

The story of SAP is one of innovation and continuous growth. Born of a single customer’s demand and an entrepreneurial vision for technology’s business potential, SAP began its path of transforming the world of IT. Five engineers — Hasso Plattner, Dietmar Hopp, Klaus Tschira, Hans-Werner Hector and Claus Wellenreuther — were driven by the desire to help companies run their businesses better, faster and more efficiently with standard software solutions. The founders’ vision holds true and its potential continues to unfold.

“SAP’s success is based on our commitment to innovation and to our customers,” said SAP Co-CEO Jim Hagemann Snabe. “This commitment has enabled SAP to deliver leading business solutions to companies of any size and help them become best-run businesses. In a hyper-connected world with limited resources and more than 7 billion people, we are committed to leveraging this experience to help the world run better. We are proud that our software is helping to improve the lives of millions of people worldwide.”

“SAP is still fueled by the pioneering spirit that inspired our founders: We remain focused on the success of our customers. They are at the heart of our ambition to transform the industry,” said SAP Co-CEO Bill McDermott. “Our best-ever financial results, the strategic acquisitions of Sybase and SuccessFactors, our long-term investment in China and the highest share price since 2000 are a testament to our strategic direction, our customer orientation and our world-class employees.”

Celebrations are planned throughout this year. Business leaders, customers, employees, shareholders and local communities in the more than 120 countries will be included in the activities.

A gala charity concert at the opera house of the National Theater in Mannheim, Germany, where one of the original SAP offices opened 40 years ago, was hosted by SAP on April 29, 2012.
