Mr. Olney said “This is really a sign of the acceptance of the new PADS product line and the exceptional growth in business in Australia over the past year”.
In early 2004, the PADS and HyperLynx products were virtually unknown in Australia as they had never been promoted to any great extent. In-Circuit Design took over the distributorship, in the territory in May 2004, and both product awareness and sales have improved dramatically since. “In 2005 we experienced a 138% growth in business,” said Barry Olney.
As the industry standard, Mentor Graphics PADS remains the No.1 PCB design system in the world. It provides everything needed to complete the most complex designs simply and quickly in a flexible design environment.
“These awards are a testament to In-Circuit Design’s knowledge of the EDA marketplace, and specifically, the Australian marketplace,” said Mr. Martens.
