EDUTECH Middle East, a leading international learning solutions provider, has announced its partnership with Kluwer Law International, a premier publisher of full text electronic journals and databases for the legal community, to offer online resources to law firms and practitioners in the Middle East. EDUTECH will now have the exclusive rights to market and promote Kluwer Law Online resources across the GCC and Levant regions.

This partnership is expected to bring significant benefits to legal practitioners in the Middle East, who until now had limited access to in-depth and focused information in the areas of business law, company law, foreign affairs and arbitration. The availability of this online reference material, which is timely, specialized and easily accessible, will help in considerable savings in time and effort for the users as it facilitates accessing information from a single point of reference.

ASF Karim, Founder and Managing Director, EDUTECH Middle East, said, “Partnering with Kluwer Law International, which is a market leader in providing access to valuable research and reference material to the legal community, reflects our long-standing commitment to bring the best of breed technology-enabled solutions to our customers. We are proud to have a truly world-class offering for the legal fraternity, and we are certain that the benefits of these comprehensive resources will percolate to the end-user as well.”

“We look forward to building a long and mutually beneficial partnership with Kluwer Law International, and in the process further consolidate our market position in the region,” he added.
Kluwer Law Online is a one-point source that gives access to information in the areas of international commercial arbitration. Kluwer Law Online brings concise, informative research information in the form of full-text journals for the legal community. The online reference material is backed by fully searchable databases of primary and secondary material in the field of international commercial arbitration and other niche subject areas with access to full text downloads of materials.

Joanne Nagano, Managing Director, Kluwer Law International said, “We are pleased to announce the availability of Kluwer Online in the Middle East through our partnership with EDUTECH. Legal practitioners, corporate counsel and business executives around the world rely on our journals, loose-leafs, books and electronic products for comprehensive information in many areas of international legal practice. Tapping the Middle East markets with our specialized offerings has been high on our agenda for sometime now, and EDUTECH was an obvious choice to partner with, given their well-established presence, impressive portfolio of solutions, services and wide clientele.”
