Integrating Business intelligence in decision-support framework is vital for companies that are willing to capture the full market potential.”

 

BusinessNews spoke to Josephine Gathuri, head of Scorto’s Kenya’s office on why Kenya was the preferred destination of choice in Africa.

BusinessNews: Does Scorto have operations in Nigeria or is there any plan for the future?

Josephine: “Scorto’s operations in Nigeria will be handled from Kenya.  We have an aggressive partner selling in Nigeria but no immediate plans to open up in Nigeria at this time.”

 

BusinessNews: Why is Kenya preferred to Nigeria as the location of Scorto’s regional headquarters.

Josephine: “Kenya is the buzz in technology as far as Africa is concerned.  There is a lot of interest and investment in expanding technology in Kenya. The number of companies that appreciate the difference the use of technology can make is growing at a fast pace. Scorto is committed to respond to this rising demand and help our clients address their challenges through technology.“
