Sempla, an IT solutions provider from Italy, and Guidewire Software, Inc. (NYSE: GWRE), a provider of software products to general insurers, announced today that Sempla has joined Guidewire PartnerConnect™ as an Affiliate member. PartnerConnect is Guidewire’s global program for strategic System Integrators (SI) and consulting alliance partners.
