"We are excited that Acquire Media has agreed to handle future JCN Newswire deployments to allow us to concentrate on the business at hand in Japan today - meeting and encouraging Japanese corporations to treat their global shareholders with the same energy they treat their customers," said Bruce Porter, president of JCN Newswire. "Foreign investors across the Japanese markets have now grown to become the single largest group of shareholders ahead of Japanese financial institutions, corporate cross-shareholders and individuals, and Japanese issuers are working hard to raise their IR efforts to global standards. JCN Newswire hope to contribute to this momentum in the future."
