Hetras, with new brand identity, to integrate with Shiji Group

Shiji´s driving goal is to create a data-driven economy and cloud-based environment, in order to serve their customers in the best possible way.

"This is the reason we acquired Hetras last year in August," says Kevin King, COO of Shiji. "We wanted to have a company incorporated in Shiji that has the ability to thrive in a digital environment, as well as having forward thinking, human-centered technology. We also went through a transition phase at the beginning of this year and want now to present our different technology's brands under the unified umbrella of Shiji. We are expanding into the US and Europe, in order to be also recognized outside the Asia Pacific area," King adds.
