SAP Africa chief executive officer, Pfungwa Serima, said with abundant natural resources, Africa’s most populous country offered attractive investment opportunities.
“As investors from around the world look to Africa, public and private sectors across the continent must now prove to investors that they are ready to plug into the global economy.
“SAP provides the tools for businesses and government alike – large and small – to provide the investment community with the returns that they expect through technology solutions that can scale and be rapidly deployed,” he said in Lagos
Serima pointed out half of the 10 fastest growing economies globally are from Africa and Nigeria was at the top of the growth charts according to the International Monetary Fund.
The forecasted growth of approximately 7 percent in Nigeria’s gross domestic product is hinged largely on its abundant natural resource output – mining, oil and gas – areas in which SAP has robust, proven solutions.
Overall, Serima said, SAP was committed in investing in Africa.
In Africa, SAP grew its sales business by more than 80 percent while its channel business grew more than 100 percent year on year. – CAJ News.
