About
Expand Networks was a privately held company, founded in 1998; initial financing was provided by Discount Investment Corporation, The Eurocom Group, Ophir Holdings, and a private group of investors, including Memco Software founder Israel Mezin. Additional investors joined in subsequent rounds of funding. The company has raised over $95,000,000 since inception. [citation needed]
Expand Networks global headquarters was situated in Tel-Aviv, Israel with sales presence across the United States and Europe, New Jersey, Australia,[1] China,[2] Singapore, and South Africa.
The company manufactured accelerators in physical,[3] virtual [4] and mobile [5] deployment options.
Expand Networks' competitors included; Blue Coat Systems, Cisco Systems, FatPipe Networks Inc, Exinda, Ipanema Technologies, Riverbed Technology.
Liquidation
In mid October 2011, following the requests of Plenus, one of the company's lenders, an Israeli court appointed a liquidator - Mr. Paz Rimer. The liquidator gradually terminated the company's employees [6] and eventually, on 11 January 2012 sold most of the assets of the company to Riverbed Technology, which immediately terminated all the company's products and ceased support.[7]
