SqwidNet CEO Reshaad Sha believes the partnership will help the company expand into other sectors
In a statement today (15 March), SqwidNet CEO Reshaad Sha (pictured above) said the company operates across a range of sectors, including the finance, human resource management and technology fields.

SMME IoT together with IoT device manufacturer Visiosoft has begun installing just over 2 500 water meter reader units across the country.
The analytics platform connected to the water meter reader units receives the consumption data every 30 minutes.
This data is then used to understand the consumption patterns of the respective areas resulting in responsible usage of water in various suburbs and communities.
