The VentureAxis team designed and developed an on-line travel agency system that allows flights, holidays, accommodation and cruises to be purchased online.
Real time integration with credit card companies and suppliers of flights, holidays, accommodation and cruises was achieved using a variety of mechanisms, including web services, XML and flat files in a large number of formats.
The system has been hosted and run by VentureAxis for four years, until the client company was successfully acquired in 2007.

Forr a UK based company in the sports media business, VentureAxis built a web based system to manage the distribution of large amounts of video contentand data files to end clients, who had previously received this information on DVDs, sent by courier. VentureAxis operates this as a full service solution, including maintenance, support, archival, and hosting from a secure facility. Contact us for more details... In retail, the Internet has made overall distribution strategies more complex. While global web players have taken a large share of the e-Commerce market, they also take large shares of the manufacturer's or distributor's revenue. Several established retailers and distributors in the FMCG sector, when faced with the associated fees and cost of participating in the global marketplaces, have partnered with VentureAxis in building their own online retail channel. Within very short timeframes, these companies have obtained scaleable systems that integrate with their existing processes, can build brand, service the exact requirements of their specific niche markets, and generate return on investment within months, not years.
