BoardPAC was the only Sri Lankan product at the two-day conference held at the Wanderers Club, Johannesburg, which was attended by a distinguished audience of Directors, Company Secretaries and delegates from leading companies in South Africa.
The conference provided a platform for regulatory representatives and distinguished business leaders to share their experiences in their respective areas of expertise.
“Strong corporate governance is vital in today’s business environment as it promotes transparency for investors and accountability for those in leadership positions,” said Rajitha Kuruppumulle, Chief Operating Officer at IronOne Technologies.
“As a trusted provider of corporate governance solutions, IronOne was delighted to be able to demonstrate how BoardPAC is the right platform for South African companies that are looking to foster a culture of good corporate governance and move to paperless board meetings.”
“We hope this marks the first of many future interactions between CSSA and BoardPAC,” said Stephen Sadie, the Association’s CEO.
“The solution enables a robust corporate governance arrangement to be put in place, documented and communicated to key senior executives and board members with the aid of technological innovation.”
In South Africa, BoardPAC is supported by its partner Entelect, a leading software solutions provider, via a dedicated help desk manned by Entelect’s technical professionals, to ensure that board members using the solution will be able to navigate and access their secured documents at anytime.
A National Best Quality Software Gold award and Green IT award winner, BoardPAC provides users the ability to view and approve papers from the ease of a Board Member’s iPad.
It has a host of features such as collaboration, meeting management and RSVP, the ability to search and refer to past board papers, as well as to annotate and approve documents and update agendas.
The solution meets with the highest security standards including the ISO 27001 certification.
IronOne’s BoardPAC already has the largest market share in the Asia Pacific region for board meeting automation and is the emerging leader across the globe and in South Africa with Deloitte & Touche, one of the big four companies in that country and the Banking Association of South Africa (BASA) deploying BoardPAC.
In Sri Lanka, BoardPAC is the trusted board automation solution used by leading companies including Carson Cumberbatch PLC, John Keells Holdings, Commercial Bank, Sampath Bank, Nations Trust Bank, Sri Lankan Airlines, Hemas and MAS Holdings as well as the Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE).
