Coleraine Firm Secures Four US Orders
A Coleraine-based firm, which develops and sells geographic software solutions, has secured four orders in the United States.
Spatialest won the deal for its 'Community' product, which makes government data available to the public in an easy to access format.
Invest NI has offered Spatialest £20,500 of marketing assistance under its Growth Accelerator Programme.
Ian Lamont Director of Business Development said: "We developed 'Community' from our experience in the banking and property sectors, and through market research we spotted a niche in the US market and identified that the applications and functionality of our product suits the Open Data and Smart Cities markets.
"With the support of Invest NI, we already have a number of contacts in the US showing considerable interest in what we offer and we have secured sales with some existing local government clients, in Nashville, Charlotte and Seattle. We wouldn't have reached this milestone without the support and guidance we have received from Invest NI, and we hope to continue to generate further sales, in what is proving to be a hugely beneficial market for us."
