Sonja Coetzer, managing director of Salt, praised the role and importance of the people component in using technology to drive positive change.
“We love celebrating the small things, as much as we love celebrating our 25th birthday. We love changing people’s lives, one technology at a time. We are more than technology enthusiasts; we are leaders in making a difference. We love what we do, we love to challenge, we love to empower, and we love to impact, “said Coetzer to the attendees at the event.
Lencia van Dyk, one of the attendees, affirmed the statements form the MD, saying: “If we think of Salt, we don’t see a service provider, but a business partner, fervently devoted to a mutual goal of running the race with us to greatness.”
