Acoer Forms Strategic Partnership with Global System Integrator Armedia to Develop Dedicated Hedera Practice

ATLANTA, DALLAS,  and Virginia, Va., Jan. 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --  Acoer, the developer of multiple Hedera-enabled technologies, such as HashLog, HashLoad and RightsHash, today announced a strategic relationship with global system integrator and software and services provider Armedia, a 5-time Inc 5000 awardee and long-term solution provider to the US Federal Government. Beyond scaling support for Acoer products to meet market demands, and meeting Armedia's growing needs for Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) expertise, both organizations see the partnership as a significant mutual commitment to increase the developer pool and enterprise application development resources for the entire Hedera community.

As an early adopter of Hedera technologies, Acoer has long held the view that the team, technologies, and governance model underpinning Hedera are best-of-breed for building practical, fast, and economically viable DLT-enabled solutions for the enterprise, where the complexity of DLT is abstracted and the focus is on application usability. As a long-time technology services firm working with a myriad of large enterprises and government agencies, Armedia is an expert in efficiently integrating and supporting enterprise-grade systems in complex, often heavy compliance oriented, organizations.

"We are delighted to be in this partnership with Armedia," said Jim Nasr, Acoer CEO. "After years of collaborating in a prior life, we have lots of mutual respect for each other, and also a genuine excitement that we have an opportunity together to help grow the Hedera community and contribute to its further adoption."

"Even though our focus has primarily been working on large government contracts and enterprise technology integration in recent times, we have kept an eye on the DLT space and in particular the work that Acoer has been doing," said James Bailey, Armedia CEO. "We believe that our scale, global development resources, and large-scale project delivery capabilities combined with Acoer's expertise and production ready technologies make this the right time for this partnership to come together and make an even greater commitment to building and supporting Hedera-enabled solutions."

Mance Harmon, CEO and Co-founder of Hedera Hashgraph, said, "Entering 2022, enterprises around the world are showing increased interest in developing DLT-enabled applications to remain competitive. Bringing together Acoer's Hedera-powered products and Armedia's global enterprise and government reach and scale will make it drastically simpler for organizations to leverage the power of DLT, and has the potential to accelerate adoption of Hedera-powered applications exponentially."
