About Us
About AfriGIS
AfriGIS was founded in 1997 and currently has over 90 employees located in Pretoria, Durban and Cape Town (South Africa), Dublin (Ireland) and Dhaka (Bangladesh). We are known for our ability to integrate our products into innovative solutions, without a dependency on 3rd parties. But if you really want to know more about AfriGIS, we need to tell you about the kind of people who work for us.
All AfriGIS employees have two things in common.
We are tenacious.
Yes, we are also patient, creative and we thrive on analytical thinking. But it is our tenacity that is one of our standout qualities. We are determined to find the answers, achieve our goals, and unwilling to give up until we do. Our tenacity moves us forward. Keeps us always aiming for the next frontier. To us, this relentless pursuit and determination come naturally.
What drives this tenacity?
We are beyond curious.
Curiosity leads to questions and questions lead to answers. We are the type of people who NEED to know. That’s probably why we became Geospatial Information Scientists in the first place. We embrace complexity. The more information we have, the better our answers get. Our curiosity drives us to push past the obvious. It keeps us excited about our work and it keeps us inquisitive about the world around us.
We aren’t satisfied with doing things the way they have always been done. We always delve deeper into the WHERE so we can tell you WHY.
GIS innovation stems from tenacious curiosity, and we’ve made it our science.
