May 03, 2005
Well it's been a great 5 years and boy, have those years have seen some change. Sinuous was born at the bottom of the IT crash of 2000. An interesting time for an IT company to be starting one might say but we like think it helped forge us in a time when people had to be realistic in their goals and precise in their execution. 5 Years has seen us progress from our humble Christchurch beginnings in 2000 to opening offices in Queenstown (2001) and Invercargill (2002). Our re-seller network over the past 2 years has grown throughout New Zealand, Australia, USA and the UK and continues to grow as our products become more refined and further developed. Thank you to all of our clients and re-sellers both past and present. It has been a pleasure working with you all. We’ve enjoyed looking back over our last five years this week, and now can only hope our next 5 years as fun as the last. Happy Birthday Sinuous! Sinuous Develops Option Trading Software
