With this merger, the new Infrasys will be able to cooperate with MICROS at all levels. With immediate effect, Infrasys’ software will be fine tuned to run on MICROS’s world-class POS hardware. This cooperation will provide the global customers, especially those in Asia, the best possible POS solutions which are provided by Shiji. The strategic partnership between Shiji, MICROS and Infrasys will be a win-win situation for all parties.
The alliance of Shiji and Infrasys will mean that the abilities of both companies are compounded, in terms of business strategies and technology innovation.
