Redwood Shores, CA – March 15, 2012 – Avangate, the agile eCommerce solutions provider trusted by Software and SaaS companies to grow their business worldwide through any channel and any model, today announced the addition of Brian Stewart as VP of Sales for the North American region. Stewart brings over a decade of industry experience in eCommerce and Payments, as well as sales leadership from companies like Digital River and VeriSign.

Stewart brings deep eCommerce experience spanning software, SaaS and gaming industries from his previous roles including positions as Director of Sales/Head of North American Small and Medium Businesses (SMB) Segment at Digital River, Business Development Manager at Global Collect, and sales leadership positions at VeriSign.
“As the largest software market in the world, North America clearly represents a pivotal market to Avangate,” said Joseph Brown, SVP Worldwide Sales, Avangate. "A key focus for us this year is to continue our momentum from the launch of our Sky Commerce Suite Q4 last year and continue to introduce innovative solutions for mid-tier Independent Software Vendors. Brian’s understanding of the unique needs of the high growth, SMB market, success helping his customers grow their online sales, and ability to build great sales teams are already proving instrumental to expanding Avangate’s position in the US.”
“I’ve watched this industry for many years - and it’s only getting more dynamic with the rapid transition of software to being sold, delivered, and used online. The eCommerce industry, Cloud Computing and the SMB segment have seen and continue to see growth in the foreseeing future. Avangate is uniquely positioned to be a leader in this market given the depth and flexibility of its multi-channel, multi-model commerce platform.
