"Additionally, we are pleased that our existing investors have chosen to invest alongside Everbright Private Equity, representative of further confidence in iSoftStone's continued success in what has been a very dynamic market environment."
"Everbright is pleased to have the opportunity to support our strategic relationship with iSoftStone," said Everbright Private Equity's Chairwoman, Ms. He Ling.

"During the past year, in spite of severely impaired global capital markets, iSoftStone raised more than $65 million, which includes the Everbright-led investment and capital obtained from a number of domestic Chinese commercial banks, which provides a strong capital base to support our continued growth," added Michael Wu, CFO of iSoftStone. "Our strong capital base will be used to fund further growth, including working capital, delivery platform expansion and potential strategic acquisitions."
