BW: Linuxcare Names Asia Pacific Managing Director, Opens Singapore Office

“Linuxcare, Inc., a leader in providing comprehensive services
for Linux and open-source software, today announced the opening of
its Singapore office and the appointment of industry veteran Angus
McDougall as its managing director for Asia Pacific. Through
its Singapore and other Asia Pacific locations, Linuxcare will
provide its professional services, technical support, training and
certification to enterprise Linux users and partners from Korea
through Australia.“

“Recognizing the need for world-class partners, Linuxcare today
signed a memorandum of agreement with Singapore-based eLinux Pte
Ltd to deliver its full range of Linuxcare University training
courses as well as a full range of Linux technical, professional
and certification services for enterprise customers in
Singapore.”

“As a low-cost, open, scalable, and highly robust operating
system, Linux has been enjoying rapid growth in Asia,” said
Linuxcare’s McDougall. “However, training and support have been
lagging. Linuxcare is the world’s leading provider of
vendor-independent consulting, training, certification and support
services for Linux and open source software. To help bridge the
gap, Linuxcare will extend its working relationships with systems
integrators, hardware manufacturers, independent software vendors
(ISVs) and others around Asia, providing complete support for Linux
enterprise solutions.”
