Injazat Data Systems outlined strategic benefits of managed services at 2010 IDC Middle East CIO Summit
Research covering the international information and communications technology (ICT) markets shows that the Middle East has the best growth potential in 2010. IDC MEA, the top market intelligence and advisory firm gathered 100 of the region’s top ICT decision makers to discuss industry opportunities, trends and best practices at the IDC Middle East CIO Summit 2010 at Madinat Jumeirah Resort in Dubai.
Injazat Data Systems, the Summit’s Gold Sponsor, delivered a presentation on the use of managed IT services as strategic business tools. The Summit addressed vital industry issues in areas such as data centre efficiency, data and storage management, security, regulatory compliance, virtualization, and enhanced ICT-business alignment.
“The impacts of government stimulus programs undertaken across the region during the past year are expected to be felt during the first half of 2010. The ICT industry thus needs to be prepared to meet the demands that will emerge from an expected recovery. ICT products and services are still viewed as essential by most organizations; it is the CIO’s task to convince partners and customers of the importance of ICT in optimizing business performance and ensuring competitiveness amidst today’s challenging markets,” said Ibrahim Mohamed Lari, CEO, Injazat Data Systems.
Injazat has been able to gain a leadership position in the Middle East’s rapidly growing data centre segment by opening the region’s first and only Tier IV design-certified data centre. Its support for the latest edition of the IDC Middle East CIO Summit continues its active participation in major industry gatherings; last year, Injazat hosted the inaugural Data Centre Strategies Middle East Forum and sponsored the first-ever Cloud Computing / SaaS Summit in the UAE.
