Nionex Technology for Italy’s best Site

Sapere.it has been honored as Italy’s best Knowledge Website

Gütersloh, January 24, 2002 – the specialist for Content Management Systems and portal solutions, Nionex, a company of the wissen Media Group (Bertelsmann Arvato AG), is also establishing itself abroad: Yahoo.com has chosen the knowledge portal sapere.it (English: "knowledge") as the best Italian website in the category "reference works". The technology of the honored website, who has already successfully fulfilled the requirements of the users for the german knowledge portal wissen.de, comes from Nionex.

Using the intelligent data preparation and the unique indexing technology, the IT service provider was able to quickly provide the users of sapere.it with the desired information. Nionex has developed a thematic search as further innovative feature, in which related terms are displayed in the shape of an easily viewable graphical screen presentation. This offers the user a clearer overview.

The Nionex technology thus enables the user to have direct access to comprehensive encyclopedias, reference books and dictionaries of the Milan publishing house De Agostini. Alongside these durables, sapere.it offers attractive and topical content such as daily news and a broad spectrum of subjects from politics over culture up to sports. De Agostini is the parent company of the web publishing company Sapendi, to which sapere.it belongs.

The website was launched in Italy in October 2001 and readily accepted by the users within a very short time. Already in the first quarter after the start, sapere.it recorded an average of 10 million page impressions per month.
