"This is the first time BTL clients and partners have been able to put Interbit directly in the hands of their technical teams, rather than through BTL's development team, and marks a major milestone in Interbit's continued development," said Guy Halford-Thompson, BTL's CEO. "I would like to congratulate the entire development team on achieving this milestone, as well as the business teams who have supported them."
