Graphisoft Opens Subsidiary in Madrid

As proof of the priority Graphisoft assigns to the
Spanish-speaking countries,
Graphisoft set up its latest subsidiary
Archicad España, S.L. in Madrid. Márton
Szövényi-Lux, formerly International Sales Manager of
Graphisoft R&D Hungary, will act as General Manager of the new
company.
«We have a solid foundation with good chances of fast expanding
our business in the Spanish market, while Latin America offers
untapped potential. Archicad 5.0’s ease-of-use and power was
enthusiastically welcomed by hundreds of architects in Spain and
Latin America, which gave us motivation to offer the region more
direct attention», says Gábor Kazár, Vice-President of
Sales and Marketing of Graphisoft.
Archicad España will work in close cooperation in the
Spanish market with the existing distributor partners NMI
Programación, S.L. and TSI, S.L., aiming at coordinating and
supporting marketing activities in the dynamically developing Spanish
market.
In the Latin American region, Archicad already has a strong
position in the Chilean market thanks to ArchiSoft, S.A., and it was
successfully introduced in Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico and
Peru last year. Archicad España will focus on the development
and support of the existing distribution channel, with high
sensibility to the particular needs of the region, while also seeking
for new distributor partners.
