PHOENIX, AZ, July 7, 2014 – Open Design Alliance (ODA) today announced the availability of a new ‘Corporate Membership’ level, designed to meet the unique requirements of large corporations.
A corporate membership provides the convenience of managing multiple business units and affiliates within a large corporation, under a single contract. It also grants consistent rights and licensing terms across all such business entities.
“Today’s business climate is one of mergers and acquisitions,” said Neil Peterson, ODA President. “The new corporate membership is aimed at large companies which, through expansion or acquisition, find themselves managing numerous ODA memberships at various levels. The streamlined administration and consistent licensing terms of the Corporate Membership make it an attractive solution for multinational corporations.”
