Kenya’s Milimani Commercial, Tax Courts to go digital with VIQ solutions

The Milimani Commercial and Tax Courts in Nairobi, Kenya have partnered with VIQ solutions, a global provider of secure, AI-driven, digital voice and video capture technology and services for law enforcement, legal, insurance, courts, and transcription service provider markets, to supply, install and maintain audio/visual recording equipment in various courts.

This was announced via a press statement issued by VIQ which noted that the partnership is a significant new contract for them as they expect to start expansion of the project this year. Courts in Lesthoso, South Africa have also entered a similar deal.

“Through our direct sales team and partnerships with trusted resellers, VIQ continues to deliver solid results,” said Sebastien Paré, President and CEO of VIQ. “As our markets modernize their capture and transcription platforms, our new AI-driven solutions mean we can provide a true end-to-end solution to unlock the true value of data, realizing significant efficiency through greater process automation.”

“This was a landmark year of transformation for VIQ. Our expansion through new sales, contract extensions and strategic mergers and acquisitions enabled us to deliver and exceed on revenue and value generation commitments. I’m extremely proud of what we achieved in 2018 having entered the year with a recurring revenue run-rate of approximately $10M USD, and I am even more excited about the prospects for 2019 as we enter the year with $23M USD in recurring annual revenue with the opportunity to improve VIQ’s growth profile and operating margins through a combination of sales growth, expense efficiencies, expanded customer service, cross-selling opportunities, accelerated technology sales and additional strategic acquisitions.”
