Company Announces Grand Opening of Its dataSIGN Division
MINNEAPOLIS, MN, GRAND FORKS AND COOPERSTOWN, ND — June 8, 2007 - Minneapolis-based Data.com International, Inc. (“Datacom”) was in Grand Forks and Cooperstown, ND today to announce its expansion into North Dakota and to launch its dataSIGN Division at its newly opened office in Cooperstown. Datacom also announced it will soon open a second North Dakota office in Grand Forks. Many guests including North Dakota Gov. John Hoeven and Datacom CEO Don Roepke were on hand for the news conference at the Ina Mae Rude Entrepreneur Center in Grand Forks. Mayor Connie Swenson joined Hoeven and Roepke for the dataSIGN Division announcement in Cooperstown. Datacom designs, sells and supports high quality, on-demand business management software applications to help manufacturing companies efficiently manage and streamline their business operations and financial resources. The company sells and services its product primarily via the Internet, enabling it to operate from any location equipped with a quality information technology infrastructure, including a rural community like Cooperstown. “We’re creating the kind of business environment and technology infrastructure that’s helping us attract quality jobs and careers to North Dakota,” said Gov. John Hoeven. “In this case, ties between the Center for Innovation at the University of North Dakota, and both public sector and private sector venture capital groups, have enabled us to create a relationship with Datacom that will produce jobs and careers, not only in Grand Forks, but also in the rural community of Cooperstown.” Don Roepke, Datacom’s CEO, said that Datacom has taken a novel approach to its organization with the formation of generally autonomous product divisions that are focused on vertical manufacturing industry segments. That, along with the company’s business model of selling and servicing customers via the Internet, led management to seek partnerships with communities like Grand Forks and Cooperstown that are interested in attracting professional level jobs. “Our dataSIGN Product Suite, which was developed from ground-up as a web-based, browser accessible suite of applications, was specifically developed to meet the information and communication needs of custom sign manufacturers,” said Chris Brooks, Datacom’s Vice President of Business Development. “dataSIGN enables business users the convenience and efficiency of being able to access the application at anytime, from anywhere, while dramatically reducing the cost of managing, maintaining and upgrading hardware and business applications,” added Brooks, “and we are extremely pleased that leading sign manufacturers throughout the United States and Canada have joined our dataSIGN customer community and have recognized dataSIGN’s advantages and benefits in helping them to profitably grow their businesses.”
