The Bogota Chamber of Commerce in Colombia Chooses Martha Zambrano, CEO, IZ Mayorista SAS 2017 IWEC Award
Martha began the company 25 years ago seeing an opportunity to import and sell energy power resources to companies who were struggling from the effects of the government’s rationalization of power. IZC Mayorista SAS began to sell point of sale technology to improve their productivity and efficiency. The company took representation of the most important brands of the world and brought them to Colombia. Five years later in 1997 IZC launched their own brand name SAT (Sistemas de alta tecnología) and today IZC is one of the most important companies selling specialized hardware to different types of businesses in Colombia, South America.
Martha will be attending the 10th Annual IWEC Conference, held on Nov. 12-14th in Redmond, Washington, to accept her award.
The 2017 IWEC conference, whose theme is “Connecting Women Businesses Globally: Accelerating Growth through Innovation & Technology”, celebrates a milestone: IWEC’s 10th anniversary. The conference is sponsored by Microsoft and hosted at their corporate headquarters in Washington state. The theme of the conference is very fitting not only for the venue, but for the emphasis that IWEC places on mentoring, education and cross-collaboration across borders. The conference agenda is a thought-provoking set of panels and presentations covering threads such as “Doing Business in the U.S.”, “Artificial Intelligence” and “Cybersecurity and Blockchain”, among others.
