Strategic Partnerships and New Markets
In the past year, Passageways has worked hard to develop new markets, as well as to strengthen existing and new partnerships. We have moved into the healthcare industry with our very first hospital customer, CGH Medical, located in Chicago, Illinois. We look forward to working with CGH and future healthcare organizations in the coming years.
A special thanks goes to CU*Answers, who continues to help improve the platform and recruit new customers to the Passageways family.
Additionally, we continue to expand our market share by partnering with MC Marketing Communications, who sell our products to Canadian customers. We are excited about this partnership and the opportunities that this provides. Another partner, Open Solutions Inc. launched themselves and Passageways into the future of technology with the successful deployment of their client association portal earlier this year. We look forward to the new and exciting developments from this collaborative environment.

Twas the night before Christmas, it was 2008
I was looking forward to the next year I knew it would be great….
But the year started slow, the economy tanked…
Luckily Paroon had planned and we had plenty banked!
Then came powwow, conference of the year what an amazing turnout we had, with customers smiling ear to ear!
