DALLAS — October 8, 2014 – ACTIVE Network® the leader in cloud-based Activity and Participant Management™ and Data solutions, today celebrated the opening of its new Dallas global headquarters with the launch of the Dallas ACTIVEx Charity Challenge. The challenge is designed to give back to the communities that the company’s technology helps to power.

Meet ACTIVE
The company invites the public to Meet ACTIVE by joining employees for the Dallas ACTIVEx Charity Challenge. For the first time, the Challenge is open to the public for participation and fundraising at the 2014 US Open Triathlon, for which ACTIVE Network is the presenting sponsor, to be held in Rockwall, Texas on October 12.
“The ACTIVEx Charity Challenge is designed to bring together our clients, our community, and our team, creating an ecosystem of support for a great cause aligned with our mission of making the world a more ACTIVE place,” said Darko Dejanovic, Chief Executive Officer of ACTIVE Network. “During the past eight years, the ACTIVEx Charity Challenge has been a way for ACTIVE employees to participate in the events our customers create. To date, our employees’ nationwide fundraising efforts have raised more than $600,000 and have provided more than 2,500 underprivileged kids access to participate in activities at youth sports organizations across the country.”
