Hyderabad, May 25 (PTI) The political and social unrest in parts of the Middle East could be a boon for ICT companies, as it may force the local governments to spend more on e-governance to deliver better services to citizens, according to a senior Mahindra Satyam official.
Satyam Vice President and Head, Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, Bobby Gupta said the company is targeting 100 per cent revenue growth from the region this fiscal.
Mahindra Satyam's revenues from the MENA region stood at approximately USD 56 million last fiscal.
"Unrest has, in a way, increased government spending on key programmes to deliver better services to citizens. In a way, it is good for all ICT companies. Unrest is limited to Egypt, Libya and Syria. (In) all these countries, we have a limited exposure.
