RIVER FALLS, WI- August 25th, 2009 – Sajan, the leader in on-demand language translation technology and services, has announced the promotion of Peter Shutte as the new VP of Worldwide Sales.

In his role of Vice President of Worldwide Sales, Shutte will oversee Global sales and will also still be in charge of channel partners; developing strategic alliances to help further accelerate the current increasing revenue stream. He will focus on strategy and evangelism of Sajan’s offerings.

Bringing over 20 years of sales experience on a worldwide basis at both an enterprise and SMB level, Shutte was one of the pioneers in the SAAS market. As one of the original members of WebEx in his role of Director of Enterprise Sales, within a four year period his group had over half of the fortune 500 as WebEx customers – with an annual recurring revenue stream of $25M. As co-founder of Workgroup Technology (WTC), a PDM/PLM company, he developed the VAR Channel and Direct Sales throughout North America and then as the General Manager of European Operations in Munich, Germany, he set up offices and partners throughout Europe. Most recently, he was VP of Sales at Nsite, which offered an on-demand application builder and process management solution that was acquired by Business Objects. Shutte has extensive knowledge and experience in both Enterprise and SMB sales models that deliver their technology as a SAAS platform

“Sajan is entering an exciting new phase in our evolution. While we have seen continued growth in our technology-enabled language service offering, we are also responding to market demand for a more independent technology offering. As the market continues to mature, the need for more advanced solutions leaves Sajan positioned very well. Peter’s extensive experience and global network make him an exceptional fit to meet the changing face of this great market.” – Shannon Zimmerman, CEO, Sajan.
