Another juicy one...too bad they have such no name clients!!!! Lucent Technologies Becomes Global Supplier for AIG BASKING RIDGE, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 4, 1999--Lucent Technologies today announced a two-year global purchasing agreement with American International Group, Inc. (AIG), a leading U.S.-based international insurance company. Under the terms of the agreement, Lucent will offer a selection of voice communications products -- including its DEFINITY® Enterprise Communications Servers, key systems and Call Center solutions to AIG offices worldwide.
