San Jose, CA – December 22, 2008 – RHUB Communications, Inc.
(RHUB), a premier provider of
Web conferencing solutions, is pleased to announce the
signing of a partnership with the Social Technology provider
InfoNeedle, Inc., the parent of SemiNeedle (www.semineedle.com),
a conference portal for collaborative workshops for the
electronics and semiconductor industry. This partnership builds
upon the success of RHUB’s partnership with Central Desktop (www.centraldesktop.com),
utilizing RHUB’s TurboMeeting Web conferencing appliances, and
is establishing RHUB as the ideal interactive solution for
real-time, synchronous collaboration.
Central Desktop is emerging as a premier site for
Social Technology for
Business, based in large part on their integration with RHUB Web
conferencing solutions. As Central Desktop expands its offerings
to support larger teams, RHUB’s TurboMeeting is ideally suited,
with its cost-effective, scalable Web conferencing solutions.
“RHUB’s TurboMeeting integration with Central Desktop provides
us with outstanding Social Technology capabilities,” said Isaac
Garcia, CEO of Central Desktop. “Our opportunities are rapidly
expanding, and we are looking forward to supporting increasingly
larger teams with TurboMeeting.”
With the SemiNeedle partnership, RHUB’s Web conferencing
solutions now serve the industry-specific collaboration needs of
the electronics and semiconductor supply chain. SemiNeedle
represents a new breed of Social Technology for Business by
combining asynchronous and synchronous collaborative
capabilities with industry specific features and domain
expertise.
“Synchronous collaboration
is a key component to supply chain coordination,” said Robert
Petrossian, President of InfoNeedle. “Coupled with collaborative
workspaces, it saves time and the expense of business travel,
and fosters collaboration and sharing with customers and
suppliers alike.”
“We are very excited to have SemiNeedle join our partnership
program,” said Larry Dorie, CEO of RHUB. “SemiNeedle’s market
focus makes them an ideal partner for RHUB. “Real-time business
collaboration is one of today’s most rapidly growing
applications, and Social Technology for Business is an ideal
framework to deploy RHUB’s TurboMeeting for collaborative Web
conferencing.”
