BloomReach was recently named a leader in the 2018 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Web Content Management1 for the second consecutive year, and the company is rapidly building out its global system integrator and technology alliances network under the supervision of recently arrived Head of Global Channels Patrick Finn. Both Hurwitz and Pomeroy will have a strategic role in further building on this momentum moving forward.
