Dear Business Partners,
It is my great pleasure and my commit-ment as well, to announce that the ICZ is entering a new stage of development as a strong and fully consolidated company. As a result of regular growth and the realization of strategic acquisitions, we are able to offer a wide portfolio of integrated software and web solutions for informa-tion and communicainforma-tion technologies. We are an important and stable partner within the Central European region. This position we earned through years of experience, numerous references, and last but not least, a rock-solid foundation. Since our inception, our main priority has been to build and enlarge a stable base for a complex company devoted to delivering precise, secure solutions for its services in respect to helpfulness and an individual attitude to each and every client. Over the years this strategy has proven itself to be very effective and we continue to make every effort to become long-term partners with our clients, over-seeing their effectualness and prosperity.We appreciate these high-level partner-ships and long term cooperation with the most important worldwide members of the information and communication tech-nologies field. Our continual goal is to be recognized as a reliable business partner and provider of information systems. It is from us that our partners can expect guar-anteed quality, maximum effectiveness of our solutions, longstanding experience, permanent monitoring of current trends in the market and a continued concern for the development of current systems. Years ago we chose a path towards the highest quality and professionalism. It is our aspiration to continue along this path throughout all forthcoming challenges. And we are fully aware that we can only fulfill these challenges with you, our business partners. On behalf of the ICZ I pledge to do the best I can for our shared success.
From our point of view, the
future of information and
communication technologies
lies in the never-ending
connections we make with
the lives of regular people.
Information technologies will
make communication between
people increasingly easier,
healthcare will continue to
improve and the world will be
a safer place as a result.
Using our experience, accomplishments and know-how, we are committed to an organic and acquisition-based style of expansion intended to continuously solidify our position as an important player on the ICT market in the Central and Eastern European regions. We provide complex IT solutions and services aimed at corporate clients from a variety of branches and government administration. We perform a wide range of activities from development, infrastructure implementation and company applications to consultancy services and managed services, all with the greatest emphasis on security.

We stand among the prominent players of the Central European integrated software and
web solutions market. We continue to develop our portfolio of products, services, and solutions
to meet the needs of all areas of information and communication technology. We offer services
based on a wide spectrum of platforms and technologies, including custom-made application
development, information protection and security projects.
Helpfulness and a Well-Rounded appRoaCH toWaRds tHe CustomeR The philosophy of our work is based on building long-term, complex partnerships. We want to be more than just an IT provider. We want to be a partner to our customers, skilled in facilitating greater and greater business ef-fectualness. Our main goal is to accommodate any and all needs and requirements of the customer. As a result, our complex spectrum of activities must also include services that overlap traditional IT concepts. We care about the inner workings of our clients’ companies, their processes, market environment, and perhaps most importantly, those areas that call for greater improvement and new oppor-tunities. We are aware that a solution supplied by us is not a goal but a tool to achieve the goals and aims of our customers.
a Wide Range of solutions Within the broader spectrum of company solutions, we manage a wide service portfolio from the supply of classic information system up to the entire network overhauls, includ-ing interdepartmental systems on the basis of outsourcing and managed services. We offer solutions primarily for the governmen-tal sector, healthcare, telecommunications, utilities, transportation, defense, finance, manufacturing and logistics in the follow-ing branches: applications software, system integrations, security, communications, infrastructure, document administration and procedure. Consulting and analytic services are an integral part of our offering.
expansion to fuRtHeR maRkets When thinking about the further develop-ment of our company at ICZ, our foremost priority is to become one of the leadingIT providers in Central and Eastern Europe. As we significantly strengthen our position in the Slovak Republic, we continue to estab-lish ourselves in markets beyond the Central European borders, particularly in Ukraine and the Baltic states. We are also currently focusing on other very important markets such as Russia, the Middle East, and North Africa. Even at home on the Czech market we continue to extend and innovate our business activities, continuously.
Our priority is to become one of
the leading IT providers in Central
and Eastern Europe.
We systematically extend the
portfolio of our services beyond
the traditional conception of IT
technologies.
We try to be more than just an
IT provider. We strive to be a
partner who increases the business
effectiveness of our customers.

twenty major acquisitions of important ICT providers. ICZ

long-term and mutually profitable partnerships with our
customers and business partners.
