Oracle Conducts Workshop for Ethiopian Businesses

Global Consultant Oracle and its Ethiopian affiliate Boston Consulting conducted a workshop for business owners in Ethiopia at the Sheraton Hotel last week.

The workshop concentrated on enhancing the technological capacity of business by offering them a better understanding of how they can utilize engineered hardware like database machines.

Businesses can avoid down time and associated costs when employees are not working at maximum productivity said Austine Ouma representing Oracle.

Consumers can easily lose trust in a company or brand if the service they receive is consistently delayed and once people move on to another service provider it is harder to persuade consumers to come back according to Ouma.

Business should also be aware of means to make useful information out of the data that they possess explained James Wainaina, Kenyan representing Oracle.

It is to be remembered that Oracle presented a varied range of high tech solutions for institutions making use of Information Technology in Ethiopia.

The company is confident that the software solutions that it offers will make its customers more competitive and effective on the market said Brook Fekadu, Managing Director of Boston Consulting, Oracle partner in Ethiopia.

Financial institutes in particular are exposed to a range of risks as they adopt modern technology such as ATM’s and electronic banking according to Brook.

Oracle can make available the latest solutions to counteract any potential risks he noted.

The company is engaged in creating awareness for the products it has made available said Brook.
