Adobe India sees huge potential in e-governance biz

Company looking forward to Finance and Education

PTI | April 13, 2010



With the government pushing e-governance in a big way, software firm Adobe India sees a huge opportunity in this segment.

"With the government going forward with e-governance, we have very big opportunities here," Adobe India sales director Sandeep Mehrotra told reporters here today.

Adobe has made its mark in the Indian market in document management system and document rights management, he said, adding "we are pretty successful in document management system and document rights management in the country."

"We are also part of a few projects like MCA 21 (an e-governance initiative of the corporate affairs ministry), where a lot of companies are involved," Mehrotra said.

Two other sectors in which Adobe has a strong presence are finance and education, he said. "Over 300 universities worldwide are using our services which means millions of students are getting their benefit."

Adobe has a very strong system in controlling leakages as well. "We have a very strong control over the leakages. In digital rights management, if somebody wants to control the content of a mail after sending it, it is also possible," Mehrotra said. The company's major clients are from the media, publication and broadcast sectors, he said.

Adobe India is a subsidiary of the US-based leading software maker, Adobe Systems Inc.
