NEW YORK, N.Y., April 28, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AlixPartners, the global business-advisory firm, today announced that it has opened two new data centers, in Shanghai and Munich, adding to the existing centers in Tokyo, Hong Kong, London and in various locations in the U.S. These new data centers will play a key role in AlixPartners' ongoing commitment to deliver high-quality, secure electronic-discovery, forensics and analytics solutions to clients at competitive costs, including in the areas of litigation support, regulatory projects and data analytics for business.
Said Meade Monger, global leader of AlixPartners Information Management Systems group: "These two new data centers in China and Germany are yet another manifestation of AlixPartners' goal of providing clients with leading-edge information-management solutions and support while at the same time mitigating risk for our clients, by eliminating the need to transfer locally-sourced data to locations outside those two countries."
Monger went on to note that all of AlixPartners data centers are coordinated globally using a platforms approach, and that all offer full e-discovery services including consulting, forensics, collections, processing, hosting and review support.
The Shanghai center is headed by Stephen Yu, a vice president in AlixPartners' Information Management Services group. Yu has extensive experience in e-discovery management, litigation support, computer-forensics analysis and enterprise-systems management. The Munich center is headed by Gunter Degitz, a managing director in AlixPartners' Financial Advisory Services group.
