Portal Solutions Completes Implementation of Two Websites for the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative 
August 11, 2009 Portal Solutions announced today that it has successfully completed the Microsoft SharePoint implementation of two websites for the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative (IAVI) – http://iavi.org,  which provides background information on IAVI and its AIDS vaccine research and development efforts and http://iavireport.org, which includes comprehensive coverage of the AIDS vaccine field.  Thanks to the efforts of Portal Solutions, IAVI’s websites are more searchable, interactive and can be updated more efficiently.

 

“It was an honor to work with such an impressive and noble organization,” said Daniel Cohen-Dumani, President, and CEO of Portal Solutions.  “We spent a lot of time and energy working with IAVI to help define their online goals and were very pleased to see both websites come together so nicely.  We are proud to have delivered a solution that will enable them to gain more visibility for the development of a vaccine to help bring an end to AIDS, one of the world’s leading causes of death,” added Mr. Cohen-Dumani. 

“We at IAVI were pleased to work with Portal Solutions for this project,” said Godfrey Branch, IT Manager at IAVI.  “Portal Solutions’ dedicated professionals ensured that our new websites went live on schedule and within our budget.  We hope that our newly-designed websites will provide information that is much more user friendly for our visitors.”
