In his letter, Mr Bentley notes that the company's growth and profitability enable it to continue to make strategic acquisitions to more comprehensively support its users' infrastructure work.
He attributes Bentley's strong performance to several distinguishing strategies developed and executed at Bentley specifically to empower distributed enterprises, along with the company's most fundamental strategic distinction - its complement of Bentley colleagues.
