eFront Opens New Office in Beijing to Pursue Expansion in Mainland China
BEIJING, May 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --
eFront, the leading software provider of financial solutions, is pleased to announce the opening of its Beijing office. eFront continues to demonstrate its support of the rapidly growing alternative investments market in Asia by enlarging its presence in mainland China.
The new office, strategically located in the heart of Beijing's central business district, will focus on addressing the private equity, real estate and infrastructure investment sectors in mainland China. In particular, a Beijing-based team of eFront consultants will provide implementation services and local support to eFront customers in the region.
Today China is one of the most entrepreneurially-endowed regions in the world. China's economy is propelled by robust private equity activity, and economists and experts anticipate the country will prosper for the next several decades at least. This promises large market opportunities for FrontInvest, eFront's flagship software suite for the alternative assets' industry.
The new office expands eFront's international footprint and consolidates its global leadership in the field of software solutions in Asia. Mr. Tarek Chouman, Managing Director, eFront Asia will lead the new entity.
