Collanos Software Adds FutureWorks PR to its Global Communications Team

SAN JOSE, CALIF. – Feb. 2007 – FutureWorks PR, an award-winning New Media PR agency, announced that it has joined Collanos Software’s global network of marketing and public relations teams. FutureWorks will collaborate with Collanos’ lead agency, Jenni Kommunikation, www.jeko.com and will head their media, analyst, and blogger relations in North America.

In the past, premium collaboration services have been primarily targeted at enterprise organizations. Collanos becomes the first company to offer free collaboration solutions to all internet users, anywhere in the world. Teams who were unable to deploy expensive collaborative services can now instantly embrace Collanos Workplace without any dependence on servers, IT personnel, or license fees. Collanos users can select their choice of operating system, take their data offline, and securely work together on team projects.

“FutureWorks has earned an impressive reputation for navigating the convergence between traditional, social, and new media landscapes. We look forward to working with them to reach the teams that can greatly benefit from the use of Collanos Workplace,” said Peter Helfenstein, CEO of Collanos.

“Collanos is providing teams with free collaboration tools that will help them become more productive on their own without requiring an investment in enterprise-class software and administrative support,” said Brian Solis, principal of FutureWorks. “Collanos will truly benefit many, and we will do what it takes to help them share these benefits with the masses,”
