Visionet Systems’ CEO Arshad Masood highlights the growth of its PartnerLinQ platform which is empowering industries to achieve supply chain resiliency Most CEOs who saw 100 % growth during COVID would be eager to proclaim their recent successes and focus on the changing digital dynamics. But it’ s telling that Arshad Masood, founder and CEO of Visionet Systems, initially takes me back to 1995 and‘ Y2K’ era to explain how, from the outset, he was focused on differentiating the company by focusing on multitask automation. It’ s fair to say his vision has paid off. From a $ 1mn investment, Visionet Systems has grown into a $ 250mn annual turnover business, operating with 8,000 brilliant minds worldwide, with a diverse range of products, solutions, and services.“ You have to focus on the value to the customer, and go and solve their problems in an innovative way – and that’ s where the longevity of the business comes,” he said. The company’ s 25 + years of experience provided solid foundations at a time of great uncertainty amid the COVID chaos. Today, under a catchy alliterative slogan –‘ Digital Defined, Digital Delivered’ – Visionet’ s customers are as broad as they’ re long,

encompassing F & B and logistics to healthcare and fashion. Key to its recent success has been its supply chain vertical cloud application, PartnerLinQ, which is a hybrid integrated platform for supply chain connectivity with all analytics, tracking and visibility built in. It’ s designed to handle very rapid on-boarding.“ That’ s why we have grown 100 % in the last two years, it’ s such a versatile tool, and selling itself,” he said.“ We can place PartnerLinQ in the middle of company’ s ERP and e-commerce systems, and connect with other vendors, in a matter of weeks.” Arshad Masood is proud to have built a company which is employeeowned and futuregeared.“ Our number one purpose is to serve our employees – and you can’ t do that unless you serve your customers, so both are equally important.” www. smfg. co. jp 15
