LarcAI was founded in 2015 by Jannie Strydom. After

successfully founding a digital business previously that
focused on business intelligence and analysis, the move to
robotics, artificial intelligence and automation in business
was an obvious choice. Striking key partnerships with
global industry leaders like Microsoft and UIPath, LarcAI
has built a framework of core automation competencies
that can be deployed and scaled at pace. https://larcai.com/about-larcai/

Datora drives continuous process improvement through

technology and has worked with many leading enterprises
in APAC to enhance the performance of their business
processes through architecture and automation as well as
integrating their applications, platforms, and data to
enable disruptive technologies.

“Robots” are software tools that have emerged to simplify
business process delivery. The technology behind this
development is called Robotic Process Automation (RPA).

These software robots offer improved business efficiency,

data security, and effectiveness by mimicking human
actions and automating repetitive tasks across multiple
business applications without altering existing
infrastructure and systems. Enhanced productivity,
reduced cycle time, and improved accuracy and
compliance are some of the benefits of this technology.

As markets and technology change and evolve, so do

systems and processes. RPA enables companies to react
quickly, without recoding or reconfiguring projects or
developing new interfaces. RPA in one form or another
will be around for a long time for this reason https://www.ey.com/za/en/industries/technology/ey-robotic-p

DigiBlu’s own journey to Intelligent Automation began

back in 2005 when its antecedent, Southpaw Solutions,
was set up to specialise in Business Process Management
Acquired by PwC then spun off in 2014 to create DigiBlu,
our projects included the design and implementation of
lean-based approaches, the development of a Banking
Reference Model in ARIS, the design of core banking
processes for a start-up digital bank and the design and
implementation of a Process CoE.

Steve Burke, the co-founder with Werner Horn of DigiBlu,

had especially deep experience in shaping and leading
digital-enabled transformation programmes for blue chip
clients in the UK and SA and, with this convergence of
business transformation and process skills, RPA proved to
be the big one, a serendipitous game changer, where our
experiences came together to help us leverage the
transformative power of what we now call ‘Intelligent
Automation’ Using DigiBlu’s Build-Prove-Evolve method,
we implement and scale Intelligent Automation at speed.
Using our Operating Model for the Digital Workforce, we
help organisations create and operate their own Digital
Workforces. Using our Robotic Operations Centre we
provide managed services and Business Processes-as-a-
Service
Based in South Africa and the United Kingdom, we
operate internationally https://digiblu.com/about-digiblu/
SiphoTech was founded by young international
entrepreneurs with the aim of producing and maintaining
the value created in South Africa. We love South Africa
and through our passion and technology, we want to
create a strong bridge of collaboration with Italian
partners.

We like to define ourself “Innovation System Integrator”…
