Voxeo Talks

As you are probably aware by now, at 6am US Eastern this morning / 12noon in Germany, we announced our acquisition of VoiceObjects, the world’s leading provider of self-service application development and analytics solutions. Given that over the course of the past several hours, we’ve been posting various articles and podcasts about the acquisition, I thought it was time for a summary of what we’ve talked about today. Here are some of the viewpoints we’ve shared:

• Our news release announcing the acquisition

• What the VoiceObjects acquisition by Voxeo means for voice application developers… on our Voxeo Developer’s Corner blog
• Voxeo’s VoiceObjects acquisition further promotes the open standard of VoiceXML on our Speaking of Standards blog
• Emerging Tech Talk #010 – Voxeo acquires VoiceObjects and brings developers new voice application tools on our Emerging Tech Talk video podcast

I think it goes without saying that we’re all extremely thrilled on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean by the combined potential of the two companies. In fact, we’re already seeing that potential be realized in some very huge opportunities that have come our way as a result of people within some large enterprises learning of the impending merger from one of the parties over the last few weeks. We’re looking forward to seeing what kind of even more amazing voice applications our customers will now create as we talk about and promote how well the tools of both companies work together.

From my own point-of-view, I look forward to joining with others within both companies in telling the story of how VoiceObjects application server and tools can be combined with Voxeo’s media server and application platform to solve real customer problems and more easily and simply build even more powerful voice applications. You can be sure that over the weeks and months ahead I and others will be writing more here (as well as on the VoiceObjects blog). It should be a very fun ride!

Meanwhile, if you haven’t watched our video introduction over on Emerging Tech Talk, let me make it even simpler for you by embedding the YouTube video here:

Keep watching for more… In the meantime, we’re celebrating a good bit both here in Orlando and over in Cologne, Germany! (As well as in our Beijing and London offices and wherever our other remote employees are…)
