Encirq Corporation, the global leader in device data management and the creator of DeviceSQL, today announced that Allen Miner has joined the Board of Directors of Encirq KK, Encirq's wholly-owned Japanese subsidiary. Miner serves as a trusted advisor for Encirq's global organization and brings extensive business and technology data management expertise to further accelerate the overall growth of the company, with an emphasis on the Japan market.

"Device data management has become a critical area for companies trying to build more competitive products," said Mark Vogel, co-founder and CEO of Encirq. "Allen Miner's unique outlook on enterprise data management will strengthen Encirq's momentum in the emerging area of device data management. With his experience and guidance, we are better poised to expand our position in Japan and across the globe, enabling our customers to leverage data to build more intelligent, feature-rich devices, faster."

Mr. Miner is president and CEO of SunBridge Corporation, Japan's leading incubator of emerging high-technology companies. SunBridge and its affiliates offer a comprehensive range of business development services that include capital investment, engineering, sales and marketing support, channel development, human resources assistance and globalization services.

"Encirq is the defining player in the device data management market," said Allen Miner. "Despite being a foreign, early stage company, Encirq has been able to win major deals in Japan. This early success is what first attracted me to the company and led SunBridge to become an investor in Encirq Corporation. I am very optimistic about the opportunity for Encirq's continued success in Japan and across the globe as companies realize the importance of high-performance, low-overhead device data management for embedding independent intelligence into devices and accelerating product innovation."
