Director of CCWF, Seijin Ki, states, "From the research and service provider feedback that we have through our application provided solution for both service provider and more importantly the customer. There have been many technology applications and companies in the call centre industry that have been quickly snapped up at phenomenal valuations. We are expecting to exceed any previous valuation seen within the industry."
