LiveTiles is pleased to announce that it has entered into a distribution agreement with SYNNEX Corporation (NYSE: SNX), a Fortune 300 leading Technology Solutions distributor with US$13.84 billion in 2014 revenue and operations in 26 countries. Beginning in January 2016, SYNNEX will distribute LiveTiles’ products to directly address the needs of SYNNEX’s North American solution providers to drive adoption and utilisation of Microsoft SharePoint within their end-user customer base.

SYNNEX will promote LiveTiles Design and LiveTiles Build to its existing base of Office 365 customers and also new Office 365 customers. SYNNEX has helped its partners deploy more than 50,000 Office 365 seats across North America through the CSP Program to date. LiveTiles CEO and Co-Founder Karl Redenbach said: "We are very pleased to collaborate with SYNNEX Corporation. This expands our opportunity in North America in parallel with the recent Microsoft Co-Marketing Agreement." "This is an important step in executing our strategy to work with major technology distributors to broaden our reach and accelerate our growth. SYNNEX’s dedicated resources specifically for the Microsoft ecosystem, the infrastructure in place to support independent software vendor growth and its extensive network of Microsoft solution providers makes the technology giant an ideal choice to break into distribution in North America,” Mr. Redenbach said. LiveTiles’ proprietary software tools operate together with Microsoft’s cloud collaboration platforms and enable businesses to rapidly build and deploy modern solutions, including intranets and extranets, to their operations. LiveTiles’ products are touch-enabled, mobilefriendly, device-agnostic and easy to configure.
