The Open Source web company opens a new subsidiary in San Francisco, California

San Francisco, May 5th, 2010 – AOE media GmbH, global leader for TYPO3 Content Management opens a new subsidiary in San Francisco today.

Major Californian IT firms, such as Cisco Systems, VMware, Sajan and other US companies, have long featured on AOE media’s roster of clients. But where in the past it was the client who came to the market-leading TYPO3 provider’s European HQ, this time AOE media has taken a leap towards its US customers – with a subsidiary in San Francisco.

Following AOE media’s sensational European growth spurt in the last few years, the company’s next goal is to significantly enhance the position of TYPO3 on the US market. This definitely makes their new outpost close to Silicon Valley the next logical step.

"Our decision to open a San Francisco office is purely based on the principle of customer proximity",CEO Kian Gould explains. "Many of our clients have their headquarters in Silicon Valley, south of San Francisco. It was time we cut the distance to them".

That’s why AOE media Inc., a 100% subsidiary of AOE media GmbH, has opened for business in the renowned SOMA (South of Market Street) design centre: sector giants Adobe, Dolby Studios and Nokia are just three of their direct neighbors.
