TORONTO, April 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SideDrawer, the API-first client-facing document collaboration platform, is pleased to appoint Mark Notten and Phil Dias to its Advisory Board, and has entered into a consulting agreement with their company Silver Peak Associates for operational, compliance, and enterprise delivery expertise on an ongoing basis.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cMark and Phil, as Co-Founders and Executives of Tier1 Financial Solutions, have built and scaled a true SaaS enterprise business on the Salesforce platform that has transformed Capital Markets and Investment Banking CRM. With their help, guidance and contribution, I have no doubt SideDrawer will exceed all expectations,\u201d said J. Gaston Siri, CEO & Co-Founder of SideDrawer.<\/p>\n

Mark and Phil both exited the day-to-day operations after setting the stage for Tier1\u2019s next growth phase with a US$34 million financing, which included participation from Wavecrest Growth Partners, Salesforce Ventures and MassMutual Ventures. Mark maintains his role as a member of the Board of Directors at Tier1, and Phil continues as a Board Advisor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe founded Tier1 with a vision of improving client insights and collaborative engagement to transform the Capital Markets CRM space. We are extremely proud that Tier1 was able to improve business efficiency for leading Capital Markets and Investment Banking firms,\u201d said Mark Notten. \u201cI see a similar opportunity with SideDrawer\u2019s approach to secure document collaboration. There is a need for a platform to power the next phase of digital transformation between professional services firms and their clients. The bar has been raised on the user experience, secure collaboration and the ability to embed intelligent workflows that are customized using APIs. SideDrawer has a unique offering that is delivering on this need.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat appeals to me is SideDrawer\u2019s exceptional user interface and its flexible architecture, allowing it to cater to the individual professional through its turn-key offering, or the sophisticated enterprise through its powerful APIs,\u201d said Phil Dias. \u201cWe are both very impressed with the team and what they have accomplished to date, and are looking forward to supporting their growth.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cBoth Mark and Phil are exceptional individuals, with a strong track record of success. We are very fortunate to be able to leverage their experience building, scaling and servicing large, complex enterprises. Having been in capital markets for two decades, I\u2019m very familiar with the complex needs of these demanding enterprise customers, so their leading position in this hyper-competitive space is truly impressive. Mark and Phil\u2019s support and involvement is a sign of true validation of our API-first approach, and their operational experience will be critical for the next phase of our growth,\u201d said Ali Qureshi, Chief Revenue Officer & Co-Founder of SideDrawer.\u00a0<\/p>\n
