SAN FRANCISCO: Adobe Systems Inc said on Monday it was merging separate business units that sell software to design programs for computers, the Web, mobile phones and consumer electronics.
The move partly represents a bid to consolidate its 2005 Macromedia acquisition with the broader Adobe organization while also recognising the growing convergence of software and the need to run across a range of different devices.
Adobe said its mobile and devices business unit is joining the experience and technology group led by Adobe Chief Technology Officer Kevin Lynch, a former Macromedia executive.
Gary Kovacs, vice president of product management and marketing for the mobile and devices unit, has been promoted to vice president and general manager of the business unit and will report to Lynch beginning May 1.
