Branham and ScreenIT Announce Strategic Alliance
OTTAWA, Ontario, Canada / QUERÉTARO, Oro., Mexico – May 15, 2017 Branham Group Inc. and ScreenIT collectively announced today that they have entered into a strategic alliance to deliver business development services to Canadian ICT companies in Mexico and throughout Latin America.
The Canadian ICT industry is experiencing solid growth due to strong domestic and international demand. The historical connection to the US market is absolutely essential to the growth of the Canadian economy. This will continue. But the huge Mexican and broader Latin American markets also provide an additional source of revenue growth. This market opportunity has been relatively untapped.
One of the major challenges in the Canadian ICT industry is the shortage of IT engineering and programming talent. This talent shortage has motivated Canadian companies to look outside of North America, specifically other continents to augment their teams. “Mexico is emerging as a serious alternate source of cost-effective talent for Canadian companies” according to Wayne Gudbranson, CEO, Branham Group. “What is even more important is that these resources are in the same time zone. ScreenIT has positioned itself as a key source of talent in Mexico and Latin America. We believe they are well positioned to offer strategic value to the Canadian ICT sector.”
“The Branham300 ecosystem clearly demonstrates the depth and breadth of the Canadian ICT industry”, according to Eduardo Campos Segura, CEO, ScreenIT. “Based on the performance of these top companies, their requirement for skilled staff and the importance of export markets for their growth we believe ScreenIT can be their talent partner in Mexico and of course the broader Latin American corridor.”
Both companies are now focused on realizing business development opportunities between Mexico and Canada.
