This is the inaugural participation by ZainTECH in GITEX, at which Zain Group's integrated digital solutions provider is showcasing its commitment to value creation by displaying its expanding portfolio of products and solutions, including cloud, cybersecurity, big data, drones and robotics, and digital solutions. The stand has dedicated areas for each of these activities, where demonstrations and models of products are available for review.
Becoming the Digital Enterprise Supplier of Choice
Many of ZainTECH's conversations at the event are centered on the activities it is successfully undertaking to establish itself as the digital enterprise supplier of choice in the region. With its customer-centric approach, ZainTECH is focusing on solving real business challenges rather than promoting technology.
To achieve this, the company's industry-specialized digital advisors and local delivery teams collaborate closely with clients. Working collaboratively, they establish business objectives and craft technology solutions. They also leverage ZainTECH's regional centers of expertise, in-country cloud-based platforms, and digital assets to accelerate delivery, reduce risks, and lower initial capital requirements.
ZainTECH and Specialized Technical Services Company (STS) Acquisition
Over the last couple of years, ZainTECH has identified several entities to which it strongly believes it can add significant value, while at the same time leveraging their competencies and market experience. During GITEX 2023, ZainTECH announced its agreement to acquire Specialized Technical Services Company (STS) in Jordan, which is the Kingdom's largest digital transformation solutions provider. The deal is designed to enable ZainTECH to expand STS' service offerings, strengthen its market presence, access top talent, foster innovation, enhance its competitive position in Jordan, and consolidate ZainTECH's position, regionally.
Since its establishment in 1989, STS has been a key player in the digital transformation landscape across Jordan, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, and Iraq. As one of the pioneer players in the industry, STS also stands as a forward-thinking, tech-savvy entity that has consistently fueled the digital transformation journey of the entire region. The company is renowned for its advanced hybrid multi-cloud solutions, robust-managed cloud services, comprehensive cybersecurity offerings backed up by a state-of-the-art security operations center (STS SOC), infrastructure, system integration capabilities, and licensing solutions.
With a dedicated team of over 350 professionals, STS has built long-standing partnerships with industry leaders such as Cisco Systems, Dell Technologies, IBM, Microsoft, and Oracle, among others. STS serves over 500 customers across industries, including banking and financial, governmental, health, education, and telecommunications across the Middle East and North Africa.
ZainTECH’s Acquisition of BIOS Middle East
This latest agreement helps consolidate ZainTECH's other high-profile transactions, including the acquisition of BIOS Middle East, a deal announced exactly a year ago. BIOS Middle East is a regional-managed secure cloud provider with a presence in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Oman.
Since its establishment in 2002, BIOS has served over 300 global and regional customers by offering managed services and cloud solutions with 24/7, 365, support.
ZainTECH’s Acquisition of Adfolks
Earlier this year, ZainTECH also announced the acquisition of Adfolks, a UAE-based cloud-native engineering firm that provides a comprehensive range of cloud transformation services.
Adfolks was founded in 2016 with a vision to help clients leverage cloud and cloud-native technologies to solve business challenges. The company provides exclusive services that automate technological processes, accelerating time-to-value and returns on investment.
Adfolks has proven expertise in modern infrastructure, application modernization, security, data and machine learning, and automation.
