The company has re-established its presence in Australasia with the hiring of technology industry expert Luke Hijikata as Australasia regional manager.

Hijikata will help Infragistics better serve its existing customer base and facilitate the company's expansion throughout the region. He brings two decades of IT industry experience in New Zealand to the organisation.

Infragistics also named Aquion as its newest distributor for Australia and New Zealand to deliver business-critical software solutions within the region.

"Luke brings extensive experience to our team as a manager and technical lead at one of the largest ICT providers in the region," Infragistics CEO and founder Dean Guida says.

"We are pleased to welcome him as a senior leader focused on delivering value to our customers and we are delighted to have him spearhead our Australasia office," Guida adds.

"We have relied on Infragistics WinForms components to provide unique capabilities for our desktop software for over 10 years," Rider Levett Bucknall IT group manager Derek Campbell says.

"As we migrate our code base to new UI technologies, we look forward to continuing our partnership with Luke and Infragistics."
