Nihilent Technologies, a Pune, India headquartered global consulting and solutions integration company, announced the expansion of its operations into three additional territories - Nigeria, Australia and Denmark - thereby increasing its global footprint and strengthening its position as a leading consulting company and IT solutions provider.

Nihilent will look to consolidate its Africa operations and demonstrate its business consulting and IT capabilities in the Nigerian market. With a strong presence in South Africa for over a decade and other African countries including Ghana, Tanzania and Malawi, Nihilent is looking to bring its deep expertise and extensive experience in providing holistic solutions across verticals to Nigeria as well.

Nihilent has similarly established operations in the other corner of the globe, in Australia. The company, in association with Paxus, Australia's leading provider of IT skills, will offer comprehensive solutions in the hottest technologies including cloud, mobility, big data, social and telecommunications, which Australia's IT industry is keenly focusing on. In addition, Nihilent will look to demonstrate its expertise in ERP implementation and post-implementation across different verticals.

Recently, the company also entered the Nordic region, through a partnership with Strategic Alliance International, a leading strategic advisory organisation based in Denmark. Through this partnership, Nihilent will start delivering its consulting-led solutions in the Nordics across different verticals.

Speaking the launch of the company's Nigerian operations, Minoo Dastur, President and COO, Nihilent, said: "Being amongst the fastest growing major economies in the world, Nigeria is undergoing an amazing transformation and presents a giant market for Nihilent. We look forward to having a successful run in West Africa with our Nigerian operations." Nihilent will also invest in building local capability in Nigeria, which the company believes is essential for the country's economic development.

Nihilent's global character finds resonance in its current expansion spanning three continents. Ravi Teja, Global Head of Sales at Nihilent said: "Nihilent is truly a global player with a clientele that comprises the most innovative and fastest growing companies that are constantly transforming their businesses and their delivery models to meet the dynamics of the world's fastest growing markets."

About the Nihilent-Paxus partnership, Robin Rastogi, Country Manager, Nihilent Australia said: "We have earned good reputation as a business consulting company that effectively links IT to business benefits. IT is certainly a strategic management tool and I believe there is significant business we will get to do in the Australian region."
