Aquent Acquires Sakson & Taylor

Global professional services firm Aquent announces the acquisition of Sakson & Taylor, a leading content design and development firm headquartered in Seattle, Wash.

The acquisition creates the largest database of content design and development experts worldwide and gives Aquent even greater access to qualified talent and expertise to meet the needs of technology companies.

"Increasingly, companies are recognizing the power of content," says John Chuang, Aquent CEO.

"By combining the services and the customer bases of both organizations, we can now provide even greater proficiency in content design and development staffing, projects, and managed services.

Sakson & Taylor's thought leadership in this area, combined with their strong relationships with leading technology companies, makes them a great addition for Aquent's current network of technology customers."

"The culture fit between the two companies is ideal," adds Sakson & Taylor founder Donna Sakson.

"Both are entrepreneurial in practice and philosophy, are privately held, and have been industry leaders for more than twenty years. Equally important is that both companies focus on caring for employees while providing clients with highly innovative, technology rich solutions."
