History
Impelsys was founded in 2001 by Sameer Shariff. Initially the company worked for textbook publishers, scanning hard copies and producing compact discs to accompany textbooks. In 2003, Impelsys incorporated and initiated a content transformation service for Elsevier. That same year Impelsys also started offering ancillary content services for the publishing industry.
Though the initial services offering centered around content engineering, in 2004, the company started developing web applications for the publishing industry. A few years later, Impelsys came up with a content delivery platform that allowed publishers to deploy their content on their own white labeled content delivery platforms. In 2009, Impelsys launched iPublishCentral. The platform is updated regularly to keep pace with the evolving publishing industry.
Clients
Impelsys has a customer base of over 100 publishers globally. MIT Press, Elsevier and Sesame Street were early adopters of iPublishCentral. Other major clients include McGraw-Hill Education, HarperCollins, and Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc.
