SAGE ANNOUNCES REPRESENTATION OF ADAM MATTHEW DIGITAL for MIDDLE EAST SALES

Los Angeles, CA (January 31, 2012) - Leading independent academic and professional publisher SAGE today announced that, effective January 1st 2012, SAGE's Regional Office in Cairo will provide sales representation for all Adam Matthew Digital products in the Middle East (including Turkey and Israel) and North Africa.

The Adam Matthew Group (Adam Matthew Digital/ Adam Matthew Education), is an award winning publisher of online resources for the humanities and social sciences with offices in the UK and USA and with long established sales representation in many parts of the world. Adam Matthew's expansion into the Middle East and North Africa is recognition that quality teaching and research resources for this region are in high demand.

"SAGE has established strong relationships in the Middle East and North Africa since opening our Cairo office a few years ago," said Tony Histed, Sales Director, SAGE. "With a strong affiliation between the SAGE and Adam Matthew portfolios, this was a natural move to achieve wider coverage for the Adam Matthew products in these regions and to provide our customers with the products and services they are looking for in these disciplines."

"With the recent release of Confidential Print: Middle East and the high interest this received from a range of universities in the region, it became very apparent we needed skilled, knowledgeable representation from a hub in the Middle East" said Khal Rudin, Director, Adam Matthew Group. "SAGE's excellent reputation, good product fit and strong performance makes them an ideal partner to showcase our varied - and growing - portfolio of collections."
