"For 2CRSi, the end of the Blade adventure marks the end of a chapter in which we have invested a lot of time and effort. We would like to thank Blade's teams who, since 2017, have trusted us to develop for them an infrastructure worthy of internet giants, allowing us to demonstrate our know-how. We are delighted that hubiC has taken over Blade's business. From the beginning, we believed in the global technological advance that Shadow's cloud computing system represented. This innovation will now allow hubiC to build a new European office suite in the cloud " says Alain Wilmouth, co-founderand president of 2CRSi, delighted.
