IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Universal Data
Interface Corporation opens European Office
New York, May 21st, 2001
- Universal Data Interface Corporation, an XML-based middleware company,
today announced the opening of its European Office. The office will be
located in London and will be managed by Mr Leen Broekhuizen.
UDICo's flagship product,
TierBroker is a high-speed middleware product that converts high volumes of
data and does large-scale transaction management in real time. Its TierBroker
IDE allows the creation of conversion specifications quickly and easily by the
editing of an XML document, and the TierBroker Server performs conversions and
transaction management according to these specifications on a variety of
platforms.
Mr Broekhuizen is a
British national, and an English Chartered Accountant. He brings eleven
years experience in financial services and IT project management to UDICo Europe.
Having started his career in the audit practice at PricewaterhouseCoopers in
London and Frankfurt, he moved to Dresdner Kleinwort Wasserstein in 1995,
where he has been responsible for a broad range of IT and business process
re-engineering projects in Frankfurt and London. He speaks fluent German and
has a deep understanding of the business problems addressed by Tier Broker in
the capital markets arena.
"This is a great
day for UDICo," said Adam Greissman, UDICo's founder and CEO. "TierBroker
has a long history in Europe, being deployed in large financial institutions
in London and Germany."
On the opening of the
European Office, Mr Broekhuizen said "I come to UDICo as a satisfied customer.
We used TierBroker at Dresdner in 1997 when it was known as the UDI on a data
warehousing project. It proved itself through speed, stability and ease of
maintenance even back then, and it has come a long way since. There is
tremendous potential in the European region for TierBroker to smooth the path
to business efficiency in rapidly restructuring and integrating business markets,
and we aim to tap that potential together with our strategic alliance partners.
