"Voyant is perfectly poised to exploit the intersection of media and technology with a unique combination of intellectual property assets, media industry contacts, and dedicated management team," said Mr. Elliot. "I see an outstanding opportunity here to grow a compelling and profitable set of software businesses to serve our new, mobile, always-connected and increasingly content-centric era."
