Changes afoot regarding the long overdue CTSpace website (see previous posts here and here), though the work doesn’t yet appear to be complete (some pages appear just to be text-dumps from the old site; many don’t have a CTSpace URL – just an IP address). Expect the new Sword-style site to be relaunched shortly.

CTSpace – minor update
Further to my February post, the CTSpace website has still not been updated, although there is a good-looking link page from the parent group Sword site, listing CTSpace locations in the US, UK, France, Germany and Austria. In the meantime, I read here that former CTSpace (and before that Constructware) executive Gary Greenberger has left the business and joined …

E-Box and Rock
The construction collaboration business formerly known as Citadon has featured on this blog a few times recently (mainly in my excursions into the early history of CTSpace – here). I recently talked to someone who used to re-sell Citadon’s ProjectNet solution while at west London-based Rock Consulting subsidiary E-Box and he told me that there had …

Investing in a dot.com/SaaS business: a history
In the late 1990s and into the first year or so of the 21st century, the dot.com boom say billions invested in new online ventures across great swathes of industry and commerce.
