The AvePoint Global Family

All the negatives of the natural disaster aside, I have witnessed for myself in just a few short days how Japan stands on top of the world in handling this crisis. I’ve seen individual Japanese citizens truly shine as world-class human beings by helping each other cope and find comfort through this chaotic situation.  I am particularly proud of our Japan team members’ acts of bravery and professionalism during the big quake of March 11th as well as the aftermath.  Our employees stayed in the office through the entire night following the earthquake while still handling customer trouble tickets from Osaka.  And due to significant reduction of train services, many of our employees had to spend the night in our office.  The entire team stayed together, even those who lived within 10 minutes walking distance to the office stayed overnight to support rest of the team.  While just one week later the situation is still tenuous given the numerous 6.0+ aftershocks and the unfolding events at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant , we still have Japan team members visiting customers and carrying on business as usual. These selfless acts exemplify why I’m consistently proud of our AvePoint global family – our unique work ethic and dedication to our job and our colleagues sets AvePoint apart. These are the key ingredients behind our meteoric eight consecutive years of exponential growth both in revenue and in employee count. 
 
We are no longer the two-man shop of 2001 when SharePoint was simply referred to as the “Lake Tahoe project”. We are truly a global family now – as the sun never sets on AvePoint – and this enables us to be the enterprise-strength SharePoint ISV making a real impact in the global SharePoint market.  We stand tall, on the shoulders of our dedicated family of employees around the world that consistently serve our customers diligently and with the utmost professionalism.
 
I am proud to be a part of AvePoint, and I am immeasurably proud of our global AvePoint family.
