FARMINGTON HILLS, MI (February 28th, 2007) – Netarx Inc., a leading provider of Cisco unified communications, EMC information lifecycle management and Microsoft collaboration and mobility technologies announced its 10th anniversary today.
Netarx was founded in 1997 by Sandy Kronenberg and Duane Tursi, two high school friends who fled the constraints of convention and Wall Street firms to start Netarx. With only $20,000 in personal start up funds, Netarx has grown into an organization with more than 40 employees operating in Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and Missouri.
"Netarx is proud to reach this milestone - we sustained growth throughout the dot-com bubble and we continue to grow today despite the financial struggles of the mid-west," says Netarx Chairman & President, Sandy Kronenberg. "Our expansion is a testament to our sure footing: people, tools and process."
Through the years Netarx and its founders have received several notable accolades such as becoming Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Finalists in 2003 and 2004, Crain's Communications 40 Under 40 in 2001 and 2005, named one of Lawrence Technological University Leaders & Innovators in 2005, Future 50 of Greater Detroit 2003-2006, 101 Best & Brightest to Work For in Greater Detroit 2005-2006 & Cisco Systems Great Lakes 2-Tier Partner of the Year in 2002 and channel customer service excellence award in 2006.
"When we look back just 5 years, let alone 10, we are amazed at how much IP-based technologies have matured. Coupling a change in business process with these advanced IP technologies has measurably impacted our customer's bottom lines," says Netarx, Inc. CEO Duane Tursi. "During our 10 year anniversary, Netarx celebrates the intimate relationships we've developed with our customers. As a business-enabling IP technology company, the prospects of emerging IP technologies over the next decade are endless. IP will continue to revolutionize the way business is conducted, enabling operational efficiency and accelerating customer business plans while Netarx continues to play the pivotal role of educating our customers to choose the ones that best fit their business goals and objectives."
Netarx officially launched a year long campaign around the anniversary entitled "Netarx10." Netarx designed an exclusive anniversary edition brand commemorating the milestone which features new corporate messaging. Over the years, Netarx has grown closer to its customer's business strategy, operations and people.
