"We are in discussions regarding integration with some of their larger existing customers – and it is this aspect along with their own product integration in the future that is incredibly valuable to Thred," he added.
Whittaker said Thred was already getting recognised by Microsoft's clients. "A partnership such as this with Microsoft has an immediate impact of accelerating our growth and hastening our maturation cycle well beyond the level of organic growth."
The startup is initially planning a limited market release. The app is likely to be launched in New Zealand, Canada and other places "where we can get that all important market feedback – allowing us to iterate Thred before doing a full global launch" added Whittaker.
So full global launch is a ways off yet.. But off to a good start here regardless..
