Telkom and Business Connexion (BCX) today announced the official appointment of Isaac Mophatlane as CEO of the newly integrated Telkom Business Connexion.

Mophatlane will be responsible for both Business Connexion and Telkom Business, the company said.

The move is said to be "the next step in the full integration process anticipated to be completed within the next 12 months", following the merger between Telkom and BCX, which occurred in 2015.

Isaac Mophatlane has been Group CEO of BCX since August 2014. Together with his late brother, Benjamin, he co-founded BCX (then known as Business Connection), a computer reseller focused on government and parastatals. Through a series of successful business decisions and acquisitions, BCX grew to become a top provider of ICT throughout Africa.

"When my late brother and I started our own IT company nearly 20 years ago, we could only dream that it would reach the level of success we currently enjoy," said Mopathlane. "I'm honoured to be at the helm of the newly formed Telkom Business Connexion, and I look forward to working with my partners to grow the success of this business."

"Isaac will be driving the full integration of Telkom Business Connexion and we are proud to have such an astute business leader fulfilling this role," said Sipho Maseko, group CEO of Telkom, in the company's statement issued today.
