Background

Emergent began in March 2004 as a business development services
firm.  We fill a niche between new technologies and consulting
companies who represent a substantial route to market.

We help our technology partners reach markets quicker and more
successfully.  We target best of breed companies who are looking
to address larger clients through a consulting channel strategy.

Small technology companies are looking for channels through which
to sell their products, while consulting firms strive to remain on the
cutting edge of technology.  A niche between the two exists
because the consulting companies are reluctant to partner with
companies not fully established in the market, thereby creating a
barrier to entry for the technology company.
