Software supplier Summa acquires UC division of technology company Anoxtech and opens new lab in Belgrade
12 May, 2016
Almere, The Netherlands, 12 May 2016 – The international software company Summa has announced the acquisition of the UC division of Anoxtech with its offices in Naarden (the Netherlands) and Belgrade (Serbia). With this acquisition Summa aims to increase its investment in innovation for its leading edge communications solutions and expanding its development labs to better suit the market demand. The cooperation between Summa and Anoxtech started about five years ago, when Anoxtech was looking for a VoIP partner to integrate their UC software. Summa has proven to be the right candidate with its state-of-the-art virtual PBX platform. Combining their respective skills, the two companies participated in several tenders and eventually decided to bundle their expertise in several cutting edge projects. Examples of their successes are the implementation of UC solutions in marketplaces such as NEC, Voiceworks and Open-Xchange. The acquisition of the UC division of Anoxtech was the logical step towards Summa’s goal of creating a global software company characterized by its leading technical expertise. Stijn Nijhuis, CEO of Summa: “Summa’s drive is communications software innovation. In order to be successful in this endeavor you need a well-orchestrated mix of right ideas, latest technologies and above all talented people and knowledge of the market. I think that with the experience Anoxtech brings we have exponentially grown this equation and we are looking forward to other great projects, from now on together as one team”. Simke Simovic, CEO of Anoxtech, now Head of Business Development at Summa: “In the past 15 years Anoxtech has contributed to the history of telecom technology development with innovative ideas and a highly skilled technical team. Summa certainly share our vision and in a period where IT talents are hard to find it is a privilege to be able to count on such teams of professionals, which can now work even closer together”. Thanks to this acquisition, Summa receives a big injection of engineering talent, mobile expertise and international commercial expansion. It also extends its development labs to Belgrade, where it will inaugurate its new premises on May 18, 2016. Summa shows its commitment to further invest in talented people by launching its brand for the first time in Serbia at the IT recruitment fair ITkonekt on May 20 and 21, 2016, in Belgrade.
