Portsmouth, NH --Newmarket International, Inc., the leader in sales and catering solutions for the hospitality industry and Blackbaud, the leading provider of software and services designed specifically for nonprofit organizations, today announced a partnership to bring Newmarket's Daylight®, Delphi® and Delphi.Net™ solutions to the arts and cultural market.

Newmarket will join the Blackbaud Connect Partner Network as a Referral Partner. Blackbaud's arts and cultural solutions support organizations' operational and reporting needs in multiple areas including ticketing, fundraising, membership, website and financial management, and retail sales.

"While Blackbaud's solutions help improve operational efficiency, we found that our customers who run sophisticated facility sales/rental programs lacked a product to manage and service event space rentals profitably," said Kit Matthew, Blackbaud's arts and cultural solutions product manager. "Tools to effectively schedule and manage large numbers of weddings, corporate meetings, and social events are essential for many arts and cultural organizations. Newmarket's products will support our nonprofit customers' business goals."

Many organizations in the arts and cultural market including museums, zoos, aquariums, children's museums, historic sites, and gardens, support their missions through revenues from facility sales and rental programs.

Newmarket's solutions are intuitive sales and catering applications built to manage and service groups and meetings. "Our solutions are found in restaurants, hotels and stadiums around the globe. We are proud to partner with Blackbaud and bring our solutions to the arts and cultural space," commented Jeff Hiscox, President, Newmarket International.
