Zoho Corp has committed AED 43 million in local partnerships to assist UAE businesses in digitization. To date, the organization has assisted almost 5,000 small, medium, and large local companies in transitioning to a more efficient and productive digital workflow by moving their operations to the cloud.
The announcement was made on the sidelines of GITEX, the region's biggest technology conference. Since 2022, Zoho's partnerships with government entities in the UAE have resulted in a 36% increase in a number of businesses benefitting from the perks programme, as per zawya.
Zoho has been able to equip businesses with the tools and resources they need to understand and exploit its solutions thanks to local partnerships. This was accomplished through wallet credits and training programs on how to leverage the company's creative goods to obtain a competitive edge and optimize its digital presence. IT Hardware & IT Related Services, Retail, Transportation and Logistics, Organizations and Services, and Professional Services were among the top industries that use Zoho's platforms.
"Zoho's offerings have enabled enterprises to take advantage of the digital revolution and stay ahead of the competition. As part of our transnational localism strategy, we have set a long-term vision with the support of the relevant UAE government departments to help businesses in their digital transformation journey," said Hyther Nizam, President of Middle East and Africa (MEA) at Zoho. "In the coming years, we will double down on this investment, and continue to assist businesses in adopting cloud solutions and thriving in the digital age."
