DataCert, Inc., the leading provider of legal and IP spend
management solutions, today announced that it has opened an office in
Frankfurt. The office will support corporate law departments in
Germany, Austria and Switzerland (DACH) as well as Belgium, The
Netherlands and Luxembourg (Benelux).
This marks the third European office established by DataCert since
2005. DataCert opened its London office in January of 2005 and its
Paris office in February of 2007.
"For Fortune(R) Global 500 corporations, the business of law is
conducted on a worldwide scale," commented Jeff Hodge, DataCert's
senior director of Europe, Middle East and Africa. "While DataCert is
headquartered in the United States, our local presence in London,
Paris and Frankfurt reinforces our commitment to the international
corporate counsel community. Additionally, our Advanced Invoice
Management System (AIMS) helps corporate counsel to adhere to value
added tax (VAT) compliance and processes and reports on electronic
bills in multiple currencies. These capabilities, when coupled with
our local implementation and support presence, are huge advantages for
our European clients."
The demand for electronic billing and legal spend management has
been evidenced by DataCert's rapid growth in the European market.
DataCert's European operations accounted for 50 percent of new
corporate client sales orders in 2006.
The Frankfurt office is located at Frankfurter Welle, An der Welle
4, 60322 Frankfurt. Anthony Rothengatter, regional sales manager for
DACH, and Wibo Rigter, Regional Sales Manager for Benelux, will be
based in the Frankfurt office.
