Bellevue, WA (PRWEB) November 20, 2009 -- Formotus, Inc. which offers the Formotus Software + Services Platform—a fast path to custom business software on mobile phones—today announced that it has been selected to join the Microsoft BizSpark One Program. In November 2008, Microsoft® BizSpark™ was launched as a global program offering software, support and visibility to early stage startups. Microsoft BizSpark One is the latest expansion of the BizSpark program. This unique invitation-only program is designed to accelerate the growth of high potential startups through a one-on-one relationship with Microsoft and a global community of advisors, investors, and peers.
“Formotus is driving the adoption of business applications on mobile devices by dramatically simplifying application creation and deployment,” said Adriana Neagu, Formotus Cofounder/CEO. “Formotus allows companies to leverage the investments that they have made in Microsoft technologies. Formotus applications enable businesses to extend the productivity of SharePoint workflows and collaboration to mobile devices.”
With the Formotus platform companies can generate sophisticated business forms for their mobile workforce using Microsoft Office. Formotus integrates tightly with InfoPath and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, so there’s no need for expensive coding or lengthy development time to build or modify custom mobile applications.
Microsoft is committed to serving as a valuable technology and business partner for emerging startups and their investors. BizSpark One pairs each startup with a dedicated relationship manager at Microsoft who works with the startup to identify its unique opportunities and build a tailored plan to promote the startup’s visibility, expand its network of investors and mentors, expose it to business opportunities, and develop cutting edge applications.
"The Emerging Business Team at Microsoft evaluates hundreds of technology startups each year and selects those with the strongest potential to impact the market using Microsoft technologies to be members of BizSpark One," noted Brian Hoskins director of business development on the Microsoft Emerging Business Team at Microsoft Corp. "We selected Formotus because of the innovative work they have done in extending Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 workflows to mobile devices.”
