In 2004, SYSPRO, a leading producer of enterprise software, was recognised as one of SA's most promising companies. One year on, SYSPRO is recognised by the Corporate Research Foundation as one of SA's top ICT companies.
On 31 May 2005, Corporate Research Foundation (CRF), an independent international organisation that initiates, co-ordinates and delivers international business research projects worldwide, launched the fourth edition of its prestigious publication, "Top ICTe Companies in South Africa", at The Park Hyatt hotel in Johannesburg.
The publication profiles a variety of companies in diverse sectors, from global giants to specialised niche-market suppliers. All have been analysed on macro- and micro-business factors.
"Companies featured in the 2005/6 edition have prepared for tomorrow not by trying to second-guess the future, but by ensuring an unshakable foundation is built for it today," asserts Arthur Goldstuck, World Wide Worx.
Top ICTe Companies in South Africa: 2005/6 is endorsed by key South African federations: Cape Information Technology Initiative (CITI), Computing Technology Industry Association (Comptia), Computer Society of South Africa (CSSA), Electronics Industries Federation, and Institute of People Management (IPM), and the the Preface to the book is written by Minister of Science and Technology, Mosibudi Mangena.
"It is always good to see and be a part of projects such as ICTe," states Phil Duff, CEO of SYSPRO. "We are really honoured to be nominated as one of SA's best. I think the book is a brilliant showcase of the entrepreneurial spirit in the country and demonstrates the breadth and depth of ICT talent we have in SA. The quality of research done by the ICTe team is exemplary and the calibre of companies listed shows that SA is truly a great place for innovation. The book is a great ambassador for the country and something we can all be proud of."
The book is available in June from all leading book stores around SA and is distributed via various domestic and international channels to ensure global exposure of SA's top ICTe companies.
