Oracle has said that it business activities in Nigeria and other West African states will be co-ordinated ýfrom its newly opened Lagos office.
The new office which was officially opened is on Victoria Island, Lagos ýhouses Oracle’s sales, human resources, and operational functions to service the West African region.
Oracle Nigeria’s country leader, Adebayo Sanni said Oracle’s revenue in the region has grown over the years, along with its partner ecosystem that has increased in size by 30% over the past three years.
He said Oracle customers are rapidly adopting mobile, social and cloud technologies to transform their businesses.
Sanni said, “they are delivering services that weren’t possible before and they are finding very smart ways to bring their products to market. Throughout Africa we have seen remarkable innovation and transformation.
“With cloud adoption rates accelerating, this ability becomes even more prevalent. Software as a Service (SaaS) is becoming ingrained in the sector’s consciousness and Platform as a Service (PaaS) is also gaining traction. IT systems have to be fast and simple to be able to be agile.”
