Foresite Announces Investment and Partnership with Fishtech Labs to Accelerate Growth Strategy and Innovation
Overland Park, KS (PRWEB) July 22, 2016 -- Foresite, a provider of managed security and cyber-consulting services, today announced a strategic investment from Fishtech Labs to accelerate their growth strategy and innovation plans.
In addition to a significant capital investment, Fishtech Labs furthers its vision of becoming a leading technology accelerator and will leverage decades of industry experience to assist and support Foresite with innovative go to market strategies, industry positioning, and technology acceleration services. As part of the partnership, Fishtech Labs’ CEO and Founder, Gary Fish, and Co-Founder Dan Thormodsgaard, will immediately join Foresite’s Board of Directors.
“We are excited to join forces with Gary and the Fishtech team as we continue to strengthen our position in the managed security services marketplace,” said Foresite Chairman and CEO Robin Mayo. “The investment by Fishtech Labs means a lot more than funding to us,” said Mayo. “Gary and his team at Fishtech Labs have a very unique approach to helping companies like ours accelerate our go to market strategy. Fishtech Labs has many years of experience in our space and are respected as leaders in our industry. The Foresite leadership team and associates are very excited to have the Fishtech team become an extension of our own.”
The partnership immediately pairs two companies focused on creating and delivering leading solutions designed to deliver operational efficiencies, while improving security posture and regulatory compliance objectives for customers.
“Foresite’s ProVision platform delivered as a service is a perfect complement to our cloud forward approach at Fishtech Labs,” said Fish. “With the MSSP market predicted to grow to $30 billion worldwide by 2020, we believe Foresite is positioned well to take advantage of the strong market tailwinds. Foresite’s ability to white label solutions is very compelling, enabling channel partners to participate in the MSSP market without the costly and time consuming task of building the software and infrastructure to support their own MSSP environment.”
“We are very impressed with Foresite’s SaaS based ProVision platform,” said Fish. “A platform with the depth of features and capabilities ProVision incorporates takes years to develop, so we are very excited to be partnering with the Foresite team at this exciting juncture in their evolution. Additionally, Foresite's Incident Response capabilities are a perfect complement to their managed security services. Foresite has the unique ability to identify threats through its ProVision platform and then immediately respond and remediate those threats. Foresite is poised to disrupt the MSSP space and we are happy to be a part of their journey.”
