Innovation: driving growth at Systancia

Systancia is a French software publisher specializing in desktop and application virtualization solutions.

Systancia has gradually established itself as the leading alternative solution in this marketplace in France and Europe, with a capacity to innovate which ranks it among the leading players in the application virtualization sector.
 

Foundation


The company was founded in 1998, and has since grown by 150% in France. Its turnover has increased eightfold since 2005.

 

Staff


As of late June 2009, Systancia employed 37 staff, 25% of whom are directly assigned to the Research & Development department. 25 further staff members are expected to be recruited by the end of 2009 to increase the company's R&D capacity.

Systancia strives constantly to meet its users' needs as closely as possible, relying on the technological merits of its products. It is a strategy which has been shown to work: Systancia now has an expanded client base in France and a network of 70 partners-resellers.

"Our software meets our clients' needs because it helps them to achieve drastic reductions in their costs and the environmental impacts of their information system"
Christophe Corne, founder and Chairman of Systancia's Board of Directors

An expansion with an international focus

Systancia is currently seeking to densify its network across Europe, to strengthen its partnerships with major-account international clients and to win new ones in Europe. In 2008, the signature of licenses with major accounts such as Foncia, Bouygues and l’Apave, in combination with share fundraising of €1.5m with A Plus Finance, has ushered in a new era in the company's growth. Systancia plans in this way to conquer the markets of the UK and Germany in 2009, all the while stepping up its R&D policy.

In the 3-year timescale, Systancia is aiming for 15-25% market share in France and Europe
