NEW YORK, April 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- IntraLinks, a leading provider of critical information exchange solutions, today announced that it will provide new translation services for its M&A customers and users. IntraLinks has partnered with Elanex, a leading translation services company, to enable all parties involved in the M&A process to request timely and quality translation of documents through a custom portal.
IntraLinks is meeting a growing demand from M&A buyers and sellers as the number of cross-border deals, and therefore the need for translation services, continues to increase. More than half the M&A deals on the IntraLinks platform have a cross-border component to them, with a seven percent growth in 2010 over 2009.
"Our strategic agreement with Elanex provides a significant benefit to IntraLinks users who are already utilizing our cloud-based platform to securely exchange critical information during M&A deals," said Andrew Damico, president and CEO, IntraLinks. "We chose to partner with Elanex because it has built a powerful technology platform for managing and automating the translation process, which will provide our users with the opportunity to further accelerate their deals when they need to translate documents."
IntraLinks, which is used for M&A deals from the beginning to the end of the process, will initially provide an integrated link on its platform for all users to go to the customized portal that has specifically been set up for requesting translation services. All services will be performed by Elanex's professional translators utilizing the company's advanced technology platform, ensuring that translation is faster and of better quality. Elanex manages translation projects of all sizes, in any document type or format, in more than 120 languages.
"We are delighted to partner with IntraLinks to provide comprehensive translation services that meet the needs of their M&A customers and users," said Donald Plumley, CEO, Elanex. "IntraLinks is recognized as the leading provider of virtual data rooms in the M&A industry, and Elanex is the leader in the high speed, high quality financial/legal translations required for cross-border transactions. It is a natural partnership that we believe will bring great benefits to IntraLinks customers."
