20. #9 MPS Goes Vertical Much like Lexmark has done with their vertically-oriented strategy to sell printers, MPS has seen the first of many companies that has taken a vertical and developed a deep vs. wide strategy. Auxilio has established itself as a force to be reckoned with. Since its inception, Auxilio has pioneered best practice print strategies for health care. They are the first and only health care exclusive, vendor independent MPS company in the nation. We expect other companies tofollow suit.
21. #10 Photizo Expands Globally To meet the growing interest and emerging MPS market in AP, Photizo hired Keng Keng Tan to head up an office in Singapore. Now Photizo has six offices throughout North America, Europe and Asia. In addition, the first Asia Pacific MPS Conference was held in Singapore in September with over 100 MPS attendees. This has spurred the second annual Asia Pacific MPS Conference that will be held in Sydney, Australia in 2011. Photizo now has consultants and analysts in North America, Asia and Europe, with events spanning to Australia, Brazil, Germany and a global conference in Orlando in 2011.
