Horizon Software, a provider of electronic trading solutions and algorithmic technology, has partnered with Business France Middle East, to expand the range of services on offer to clients based in the MENA region.

The choice to collaborate with Business France is strategic, and fits into the wider business goals of Horizon, supporting the growth and development of their global presence. Business France will play a major role in strengthening client relationships and facilitating business opportunities for Horizon in the MENA region. This will allow Horizon’s technology to be deployed on a larger scale, providing sophisticated services to a wider range of clients.
 
For the past four years, Horizon Software have invested a tremendous amount of energy in developing the region, led by Damien Jenner, Managing Director and Head of Sales.

This decision works in conjunction with the next key milestone, which will be to open an office to support clients on a local basis.
 
Headquartered in Dubai, Business France Middle East is part of a national agency that supports the international development of the French economy through fostering expert growth of French businesses, and facilitating international investment.
 
Anne-Laure Bouhadef, Key Account Manager at Business France, says: “We are delighted to begin collaborating with Horizon Software, and are excited to work together to support their regional expansion. Horizon’s expertise has already contributed significantly to the growth and dynamism that we see in the financial technology sector in the MENA Region.”
