Alamy Images and iView Unveil new partnership at MacWorld 2002
17th July 2002
Alamy Images, a leading provider of specialist images and general material from the world's key picture libraries and photographers, has announced a new partnership with iView Multimedia, whose iView MediaPro software is regarded as the leading solution for managing content such as images and MP3s on the Mac.
The initial phase of the partnership will involve a hyperlink from alamy.com to the iView website, allowing Alamy's visitors to purchase iView MediaPro. Alamy will receive payment for each sale of MediaPro resulting from the click-throughs. This is expected to go live at the end of August 2002.
James West, CEO of Alamy commented, "We often receive customer enquiries about how they can best manage their image files. When iView approached us, formalising a partnership that will allow us to provide our customers with a best-of-breed content management solution seemed like a logical step and is very much in keeping with our mission to serve customers and photographers."
Mike Vieyra, CEO of iView said "Given that Alamy's customers are creative users, with a high percentage owning Macintosh computers - exactly the type of customer iView serves - it seemed obvious to collaborate in a partnership that provides value to all."
iView will be demoing MediaPro at MacWorld, which is taking place at the Jacob K. Javits Centre between 17-19 July 2002 on stand no. 1751.
