Marketing and development of business relationships for start-up companies.

Ms. Sturwold is quoted to say “The team at LinuxMagic have developed some
outstanding technology and software and I look forward to working with such
a bright and intuitive team. I believe that the overall slowdown in IT
spending will ultimately create more demand for OpenSource technologies
among enterprise customers as they tighten there IT budgets. Our leadership
in Linux and OpenSource developments positions us to benefit from the
adoption of those technologies by large corporations.”
Linux Magic’s unparalleled commitment to building world-class Linux products
keeps them at the forefront of enterprise developments. Companies looking at
outsourcing, or shifting to Linux Platforms for the first time, will look to
the services of LinuxMagic. I expect the growth of the company to keep on
escalating as more people find the names Wizard IT, and LinuxMagic
synonymous with Linux Support Services and Development.”

LinuxMagic has experienced a 40% growth in revenue over the previous year,
and has recently signed 3 major support deals for ISP’s and
Telecommunication Firms across America, which shows the strength of
LinuxMagic in the market place. They are quite excited about working with
LinuxMagic a Vancouver based Firm, as it allows them to offer a greater
range of solutions to their higher-end clients. LinuxMagic expertise in
security and privacy issues, with their Virtual Private Networking and
Firewalling Software, also provides the level of confidence their clients
require, which is very important for all Internet enabled projects.
