(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Press Release 27/08/2010 at 13:15
Sanoma will concentrate its B2B businesses by transferring Esmerk, a provider of
information and media monitoring services, from Sanoma News division to Sanoma
Learning & Literature division. Esmerk and AAC Global, a provider of language
services, will constitute a new B2B service entity as of 1 September 2010.
"The underlying reason for the transfer is Sanoma's strategic objective of
developing and growing its B2B businesses. We want to respond to the changing
needs of our customers and utilise the internal synergies within the Group,"
says Hannu Syrjänen, President and CEO of Sanoma.
"The transfer will improve the possibilities for co-operation between Esmerk and
AAC Global. Together the units will be better positioned to develop their
operations and provide new innovative B2B services. We are supporting the
international growth and operations of our corporate customers in a global
business environment through reliable information and language services," says
Director Tuomo Räsänen of Sanoma Learning & Literature.
"Close co-operation with AAC Global will have an obvious positive effect on
Esmerk and its customers. The arrangement will secure Esmerk's prerequisites for
growth. It will also enable us to provide our customers with more comprehensive
services," says Derek Cox, Managing Director of Esmerk.
The arrangement will not affect personnel, nor will the name or corporate
structure of Esmerk change.
