Zuken Names Quadra Solutions as European CADSTAR Distributor of the Year

UK leads growth for desktop PCB design solution

6 June 2012 – Munich, Germany and Westford, MA, USA – Zuken is pleased to announce ongoing growth for its desktop PCB design solution CADSTAR in 2011-2012. Within Europe, the thriving UK market showed an increase in sales of almost 24% compared with last year, with Scandinavian sales growing by 8%.

CADSTAR growth in the UK has been spearheaded by reseller Quadra Solutions, which has been named European CADSTAR Distributor of the Year for the fourth time.

With the tighter economic conditions of the last few years, Quadra Solutions has seen changes in customers’ priorities, with increased efforts to get better value for their money and to maintain their competitive edge. "We’ve seen a steady migration to state-of-the-art, high speed technologies and interest in signal integrity and high speed routing tools," says Dobson.

Zuken draws on its considerable range of R&D expertise at its design centers in the UK, Germany and Japan, developing CADSTAR to address the challenges faced by today’s and tomorrow’s PCB designers. The next version of CADSTAR will be launched in Autumn 2012.
