Element, LLC today announced the formation of a business partnership with Gantec Publishing Solutions, LLC. The relationship will allow the company to deliver effective, efficient print and electronic product development solutions in response to changing market dynamics, global business opportunities, and the accelerating use of technology in markets the company serves worldwide.
Gantec is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois with sales offices in Madison, Connecticut. The company operates two development facilities in India, located in Chennai and Hyderabad, with a third business unit located in Singapore. Gantec has served the global media market since 2003, notably in the education, instructional materials, and trade market sectors. The company produces and prepares content and products for use in print-based textbooks, publications, journals, magazines, and catalogs, and provides development services for high quality web-based and e-learning products. Gantec offers extensive data management services including database publishing and asset re-use solutions, data conversions, and content structuring applications, among others.
Matthew Reynolds, Element’s Chief Executive Officer, noted “Achieving this strategic goal concludes an extensive effort over several years to explore, test, and deliver the most effective and responsive global development solution possible to our customers. The combined expertise, experience, and capacity resulting from our partnership with Gantec will allow Element to serve clients with greater agility, diversity, and options for large-scale, end-to-end product development solutions. We are confident this partnership will enhance and sustain Element’s status as a first choice, best-of-class development partner to our clients around the world.”
Ramana Abbaraju, Chief Executive Officer of Gantec, added “The vision and personalities of the two companies were very similar and apparent from the outset of our relationship. Both organizations are extremely client-focused, and the resulting culture and philosophy of the partnership moving forward reflects the business model our prior successes were built upon separately. Our collaboration in recent months has delivered great results, and this formal integration will allow us to manage and invest strategically, maximize efficiencies, and leverage the combined expertise and core competencies of the various development units operated by the two companies separately. We anticipate a very favorable response to this partnership from the marketplace.”
Gantec will function as an operational unit of Element in the U.S. marketplace. Internationally, Element-Gantec will provide premier, comprehensive development solutions that meet the diverse and changing needs of our clients and their markets around the world. |
