Not many companies have any reason to be cheerful about the ongoing global financial crisis, but SumTotal, the world's largest provider of talent management and learning software, is definitely one of them.

The company is eyeing the current economic slowdown as a golden opportunity to promote its solutions for organizations faced with redundancy and the need to boost the productivity of remaining employees.

SumTotal regards China as one of the two economic engines in the world which are not following the United States and Europe to recession, and will increase its presence here.
