Ness Technologies Named Israeli Company of the Year

TEL AVIV, Israel and LONDON, July 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

Ness Technologies, a global provider of software product engineering services, business technology solutions and information technology services, today announced that it has been named Israeli Company of the Year for 2012-2013 by UK Israel Business for successfully integrating its own expertise in mobility services with the user experience competencies of its recently-acquired British firm Imano, a full-service digital agency specializing in mobile strategy, design and development.

The award was presented by UK Israel Business-the central port of call for all business, trade, industry and investment between the UK and Israel-at the annual British Israeli Business Awards dinner in London. "The British Israel Business Awards recognize the vital contributions both economies make to each other in bilateral trade," said Hugo Bieber, Chief Executive of UK Israel Business. "All UK Israel Business award nominees have made such contributions, and have been involved in transactions that positively affect both the British and Israeli economies. Ness Technologies was named this year's Israeli Company of the Year because its incorporation with London-based Imano demonstrates the rare situation of an Israeli technology company successfully combining resources with a leading British technology company."

"Ness is thrilled to be named Israeli Company of the Year," said Ofer Segev, President and CEO of Ness Technologies. "As a global company with significant interests in both the UK and Israel, we appreciate the importance of UK Israel Business to the business community of which we are a part, and we are truly honored to be recognized by the organization for our contributions to both markets."

"Ness has built strong British-Israeli business relationships with initiatives like our Israel Development and Engineering Center for Barclays Capital, which leverages Israeli technology and leadership as well as a wealth of software engineering expertise," said Paul Madarasz, President, Ness Software Engineering Systems. "As a provider of truly global services, Ness unites resources across geographies to offer its clients best-of-breed skills and capabilities from Israel, the UK, Central and Eastern Europe, North America and Asia. This integrated competence enables us to form strategic relationships with our clients that produce highly innovative solutions, improving their competitiveness and enabling them to achieve true differentiation."
