Software Company Sets Sights On China

Brian T. Keane, who departed Boston technology services firm Keane Inc. under a cloud two years ago, has resurfaced as chief executive of a private-equity-backed Wakefield company focused on outsourcing software applications and services to China. The company, which is set to relaunch today under the name Dextrys, seeks to become the leader in a fragmented Chinese technology services market that''s poised for rapid growth. Dextrys''s motto will be "Making China Easy" for US companies farming out software and services operations. Research firm Gartner Inc. estimates that the market in China will be $6.1 billion in revenue this year and projects it will nearly double to $12 billion by 2012.
