Sia Partners Teams Up with Strong Network

Sia Partners and Strong Network are excited to announce the launch of their partnership. The companies plan on bringing innovative, cost-effective ways to deliver online development environments to support inshore, nearshore and offshore enterprise teams, with an emphasis on improving productivity and security. The two companies have recently collaborated to assist numerous mutual clients, with a particular focus on clients in France. 

Strong Network provides a platform to manage online Linux development environments, i.e. Cloud Development Environments (CDEs), on-premise or on private cloud with native security capabilities. The company was recognized by Gartner as an innovative CDE provider in their latest August 2023 trend report on Agile and DevOps. Compared to other vendors, Strong Network delivers the first platform that combines the efficiency, productivity, and cost-saving advantages of CDEs, with innovative data security mechanisms essential for deployments in global organizations. 

With a global presence and a strong Cybersecurity team, Sia Partners will rely on its sales and support network to offer enhanced client support and serve joint customers. 

“We're very excited to continue this fruitful collaboration with StrongNetwork, and to support the startup in its development, as it brings a unique solution to the market! Our cybersecurity teams around the world are already collaborating fully with StrongNetwork's teams to ensure that our clients benefit from the very best technology and cutting-edge support,” says Akram Azzam, Global Head of Sia Partners' Cybersecurity Business Line.   

“Our joint effort addresses the existing challenges of managing cost-efficiently a distributed and collaborative development workforce, while both increasing developer’s experience and data security with non-intrusive mechanisms,” said Laurent Balmelli, CEO and Co-Founder of Strong Network. He added, "Our partnership with Sia Partners will enable our customers to realize the full ROI potential of the platform, e.g. through DevSecOps and risk control automation, thanks to Sia Partners’ expertise in security governance and enterprise change management.” 

Strong Network’s platform delivers cloud development environments (CDEs) that both keep enterprise assets secure and developers productive, yielding significant IT cost reduction and increasing organizations’ security posture across in, near and off-shore developer onboarding scenarios. Founded in 2020 and backed by top European VCs, the company is today the leading platform for secure CDEs.
