A combination of Jonas Bogoshi, an old hand in ICT, and a resilient entrepreneur, Robert Gumede, has proven to be a winning formula for good results. But, it's been a rough ride. Under the guidance of former CEO John Miller, GijimaAst was rescued from disappearing into oblivion. His successor, Bogoshi, is winning almost every tender in town and turning this ICT firm into a major player. Investors are impressed. But they're not the only ones smiling all the way to the bank. Black suppliers are also benefiting from the company's preferential procurement, which earned it a cool 19,7% out of 20. Other ICT firms joining Gijima in the overall Top 10 in this year's Top Empowerment Companies are AdaptIT in seventh place and Faritec in ninth.
