What
is MIZI ISV Support Program ?
Business alliances today are more
important than ever. Combining the strengths of two organizations
often creates greater value than the organizations working independently.
Developing cooperative business relationships is essential to
the success of any business model.
Our goal is to become the preferred software platform. We need
our ISVs to help us reach that goal. Whether it is to build application
objects based on MIZI Linux. ISVs' help takes us into new opportunities
and market. Because of their value we are committed to helping
them increase their visibility to our end users. Our ISV Support
Program is a foundation upon which we can build key strategic
relationships with ISVs. ISVs build products that expand the value
of MIZI Linux to our end users. Managing these relationships together
under this new program will create better communication, networking,
and information exchange. This will strengthen relationships with
our ISVs, both between MIZI and among themselves.
Our MIZI Prizm ISV Programs are for companies that specialize
in software development and wish to form business relationships
