Tyler Lawton formed www.syntergy.com, Inc. (Syntergy) in 1997. At the time, he was working at QUALCOMM Incorporated as a consultant in the Management Information Systems department. When Qualcomm implemented Livelink^® as their document management system, Tyler was that project's technical lead.

At that time, Livelink^® had no documentation. In fact, you had to FTP Livelink^® from an Open Text^® server. Since very few people knew Livelink^® well, Tyler learned to use and customize it by working directly with the source code. He soon became so proficient that Open Text^® recruited him to do Livelink^® consulting for them on the side. In fact, Tyler led some of the first large Livelink^® customizations at AT&T Wireless and Sprint.

As Livelink^® grew in popularity, Tyler noticed that the demand for high-quality Livelink^® consulting was so strong that he started Syntergy. Since then, Syntergy became the first Open Text^® Affinity Partner and, until early 2002, focused entirely on Livelink^®. Syntergy continues to grow to where it now has many experienced developers across a variety of platforms.

"Syntergy" combines "Internet" and "synergy".

Tremendous productivity and synergy happen when people access the wealth of information gathered over the years. Walls tumble between departments within corporations as they realize the benefits of sharing their information. The Internet allows information and ideas to flow uninhibited around the world. With the Internet as the backbone, companies can further share this synergy with customers, suppliers, and even competitors around the world.

Syntergy's headquarters are in La Jolla, California—15 minutes from downtown San Diego. We are a distributed company, with offices and staff throughout North America.

In Spanish, "la jolla" means "the jewel". With its wonderful beaches, cultural activities, and fine restaurants, La Jolla is certainly the jewel of California. La Jolla is also home to renowned institutions, such as the Scripps Institution of Oceanography and the Stephen Birch Aquarium & Museum. It is also home to the University of California, San Diego as well as to many bio-tech, telecommunications, and software companies.
