SystemsFusion came to Denver because of a culmination of two things, Hadaf said. One aspect is the high quality of life. The other aspect is the number of service providers in the area. The user downloads an application by leasing rather than buying the program. According to Vice President Jim Powers there are 25 companies in the client pipeline for SystemsFusion.
Most clients are in the cable and wireless market in the United Kingdom.
Sun is one of the reasons we were able to move out of South Africa, Hadaf said. Sun provided us with equipment to undertake a Solaris port and provided us with marketing materials and programs. Twelve employees who helped develop the company s product relocated. Five employees stayed in South Africa either because they chose not to move or because they didn t obtain a visa. In order to receive the correct work visa into the United States comma the foreign employee must be skilled in a way that American citizens are not.
