SAGE Middle East, which provides small- and medium-sized organizations with a range of easy-to-use business management software and services, and GT Tech, a leading IT company in Saudi Arabia, will host a one-day event to raise further awareness about the partnership's ICT solutions for the kingdom's enterprise sector. Under the patronage of Prince Khaled bin Al Waleed Bin Talal Al Saud, Chairman of GT Tech, the event will be held at the Four Seasons Hotel in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on Jan. 19, 2015, and is expected to be attended by ICT executives, entrepreneurs and end-users across the Kingdom.
Keith Fenner, Senior Vice President Sales – Sage ERP Africa and Head of Sage Middle East, said: “Saudi Arabia is a very promising market for Sage Group. It has a thriving ICT sector, with spending expected to reach $36.95 billion by 2015, growing by 4.6 percent year on year, as per IDC's latest forecast.”
Fenner added that Sage is well-placed to respond to the demand of Saudi companies – both small and large – for enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions that ensure seamless operations and improved productivity.
In addition, Mohammed Al Mutabagani, CEO of GT Tech, said the event supports the major developments happening in the kingdom's ERP frontier.
“ERP solutions, such as the Sage ERP X3, have become increasingly user centric, agile and collaborative in their design. Today, ERP is all about the customer experience and businesses want mobility, big data analytics and reporting. The shift to the cloud and connected services is very much a reality amongst enterprises of all sizes,” he said.
Deon Oelofse, Sales Director KSA at Sage Middle East, said the Sage Middle East-GT Tech event will highlight Sage's world-class ERP and customer relationship management (CRM) solutions such as Sage ERP X3, Sage 300 and Sage CRM and how they can help take an organization to its next growth level. — SG
