A new startup company based in Dublin, InishTech, is entering the market today to relaunch Microsoft Software Licensing and Protection (SLP) Services. The new company, founded through collaboration between the Microsoft IP Ventures Program and Enterprise Ireland, takes on responsibility for SLP Services’ existing customer base and will continue to provide, expand, and grow the service to independent software vendors (ISVs) and developers around the world.

InishTech has assumed full responsibility for the existing customer base, and acquired the rights to SLP Services. To ensure a smooth transition for SLP Services customers, Microsoft will continue to offer SLP Services support until September 24, 2009.
