STME, revealed its major achievements, milestones, and growth during the year 2016. STME has recorded an impressive double-digit growth over 2015. The company also signed on 34 new clients.
The most impressive of all developments in 2016, however, was the unprecedented growth recorded from STME’s IT security division. Having only just launched the security division in 2015, the department’s skilled employees developed products and services from solutions perspective (rather than vendors’ perspective) to win large and sophisticated security projects from elite clients. “The dedication of the team in delivering and building innovative security products and services that STME is known for lead to great market penetration in the areas of cyber security. I am convinced it is our fabulous teamwork which ensures great quality that helped us achieve the aggressive growth rates in this sector,” commented Mr. Ayman Albayaa, CEO, STME
A stronger focus on cloud solutions, managed services, consultancy and pay-as-you-go options or OpX over CapX models is currently fueling the innovation drive at STME. Further, the company wants to strengthen their certifications and partnerships. “To do this, we are expanding our technologies, and upgrading our certification to match those available in the market. All of this is done with our clients’ in mind, to achieve the best ROI and run their critical business operations smoothly,” explained Mr. Albayaa.
Speaking on the status of the industry, Mr. Albayaa, said: “Already in Q1 of 2017 there is some upward trajectory of the markets. The IT security sector, cloud services, big data, business intelligence, storage and backup, business continuity and all aspects of data management are booming in 2017. We especially see huge potential around the Middle East, especially in KSA, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, and Egypt. We are very optimistic, and believe we will be able to record yet another two-digit growth in 2017.”
