THE 2013 Edo State Technology Day left many with some pockets of surprise with the exhibition of modern technologies.

One of which is the Signal Alliance cutting edge IT solutions. The company said its participation was informed by the desire to offer Nigerians the advantage of deploying best-in-class technology systems in the public sector as a means of achieving transparent governance and administration.

This year’s edition of the annual event was titled:  “Fostering Governance with Technology”,  which  attracted a plethora of IT Consultants, Vendors, and Solution experts from across the country.

It was chaired by Omobola Johnson, the Communication Technology Minister and hosted by the Edo State governor Adams Aliu Oshiomhole.

According to the Edo state Government, the event was conceptualized to analyze, diagnose and proffer solutions to IT challenges with particular attention being paid to Broadband Delivery and Management in Nigeria, Advancing Education with Technology, Security Implications of Big Data and Actualizing a Workable National IT Policy.

Commenting on the value proposition of the solutions presented by the IT firm at the event, the Marketing and Communications manager of Signal Alliance and the leader of the team to the event, Michael Chinwuba, explained that apart from showcasing cutting-edge IT solutions that would benefit both the public and private sector enterprise customers, the SA team was very much interested in meeting with and getting feedbacks from its numerous existing public sector customers as well as potential customers.

According to him, “it goes beyond showing what we have, but mostly to engage delegates especially from the public sector that were there to get their IT problems solved, because ours is much more than a company that sells technology. We listen and try to come up with unique technology solutions for all manner of challenges our customers can face” he said.

For Signal Alliance, the Edo Technology Day event has become a reference point on how government on any level, can engage technology solution providers in the formation of a synergy with that critical market in order to proffer solutions. In a bid to ensure that the target is achieved, Signal Alliance also showcased high-end solutions in Business Optimization, Networks & Monitoring, Service Management, Data Centre & Collaboration, Software Advisory Services, Business Applications and Cloud Computing.
