Infopia's SaaS eCommerce Platform for Growing eTailers

19:07 | Brad Baldwin | May 16th, 2008 4:00pm |

Applying the right technology solutions to enhance business growth is something Bjorn Espenes, CEO at Infopia, is passionate about. As a growth company itself, Infopia delivers a SaaS (software as a service) eCommerce platform for businesses that need to manage the common operational challenges that growth creates. Things like inventory management and merchandising, order management, and shipping and fulfillment all work together in a seamless online system.

Infopia is the “next step” for many of the savviest online sellers looking to grow their business. Titanium and Platinum PowerSellers on eBay, not to mention multi-million dollar merchants who primarily sell on their Web sites, have dramatically improved revenues with Infopia.

Espenes sits down with Brad Baldwin from Rocky Mountain Voices to share the Infopia story and highlight the business problems Infopia solves. Espense shows why he was recognized as one of the Top 40 Executives Under 40 and a member of vSpring Capital’s v100 Entrepreneurs.
