Continuity Shop Partners With Vizionera to Establish Operations in the United States and Expand Global Footprint
Walnut Creek, CA (PRWEB) August 30, 2013 -- The partnership establishes an operational base for Continuity Shop in the United States where business continuity, resiliency and information security remain a top priority for organizations and government entities. Vizionera’s international reach will also assist in significantly expanding Continuity Shop’s reach around the world.
“We had worked with Alex Arvanitidis in his former role as Vice President at the Business Continuity Institute (BCI) where his team was instrumental in spearheading an unprecedented period of revenue and membership growth,” said Sam Howard, CEO of Continuity Shop. “When it came time for us to expand our operations, it was an easy decision to work with Alex and his organization,” he continued.
In his role as Vice President at the BCI, Alex Arvanitidis led a sales, marketing and operations team which played a integral role in expanding training and certification revenues 20 times their 2008 levels and membership in the association by over 100%.
“I am delighted to be working once again with the team at Continuity Shop,” said Alex Arvanitidis, Director and CEO of Vizionera. “The quality of their training material and instructor corp. is second to none in the industry. It is a privilege to have the opportunity to assist in their growth and expansion worldwide,” he continued.
Continuity Shop was recently awarded Business Continuity Provider of the Year (Service) at the prestigious BCI European Awards for the development of 30 business continuity training courses and their high quality of delivery.
