Reactive partners with Sitecore to drive European expansion

London, UK – 31^st July 2012  Sitecore UK has announced that award-winning, full service digital agency Reactive has joined Sitecore UK as a Certified Solution Partner.  Reactive has its sights set on rapid expansion across the UK and Europe to further its ambition as a global Sitecore developer partner.  Reactive already has a track record of developing award winning Sitecore solutions in its home markets of Australia and New Zealand, and is now set to repeat this success across Europe, as demand in the region for Sitecore solutions across web content management and on-line engagement continues to grow.

Reactive was founded in 1997 in Melbourne, with offices in Sydney, Auckland, London and New York.  Reactive is independently owned with 100 employees, and its main capabilities span across Insight and Strategy, Design and Usability, Development, eCommerce, Integrated Marketing and Project Management.  Its UK clients include Tesco, British Airways and Cambridge University Press.

Reactive has had great success developing Sitecore solutions and now boasts a global footprint of more than 20 certified Sitecore developers.  It has recently collected ‘Sitecore Site of the Year’ awards for its work with Cricket Australia’s ‘Big Bash League’ www.bigbash.com.au and for its launch of the first Australian Sitecore web site hosted on cloud-platform Microsoft Azure for Australian National Maritime Museum.

Chris Vezey, sales director, Sitecore UK Ltd, commented:

“Reactive is an ambitious Sitecore partner which already has deep Sitecore development resources and global capabilities.  Reactive now has a head-start in the UK and European market as it brings the experience and expertise it already has for the benefit of new clients and prospects.

We welcome Reactive and we look forward to supporting their ambitions to achieve success with Sitecore in the UK. We continue to attract agency partners such as Reactive who want to capitalise on Sitecore’s ability to deliver digital solutions that drive customer engagement.”

Bradley Grinlinton, UK managing director, Reactive, commented:

“The team and I are all extremely excited about coming on board as a Sitecore partner here in the UK.  The opportunity presented by the Sitecore Customer Engagement Platform, especially the Digital Marketing System, is going to be huge over the next 12 months as a more personalised approach to customer engagement continues to grow in importance as part of the marketing mix.  We believe that our skills and experience with the platform put us in a great position to be able to help Sitecore users old and new to not only efficiently manage their online presence but also to create a higher quality of engagement with their customers.”
