“There are few companies who have such an impressive array of clients, deep and lasting partnerships in their chosen markets, and as broad a range of technologies as Uniguest," said Surlien, who will stay on with Uniguest after the acquisition. "To join this team was an easy decision. We believe in the vision of the Uniguest leadership team and are excited to be part of it. We have worked hard to build a great business and exceptional technology platform that we are rightly very proud of, and we are excited by the prospect of the coming together of our business with Uniguest.”
