Who are we? GreyBox! A new company in Kenya that gives professional software testers the possibility to work on projects in Europe.
What do we do? Our Unique Selling Point is a combination of knowledge and drive. Since Covid 19 many companies got used to the idea of working from another place than the companies office. This means that distance is not a problem anymore. So we deliver Software Testing expertise from Kenya.
Who are or will become our clients? Mainly companies that work on a global level or companies with an English speaking background. Examples: Enza Zaden, KLM, Amdocs, Vodafone, etc.
WORLD WIDE TESTING
How do we get to work for these clients? In the Netherlands a company has been setup to become our European sales department. These are sales persons with a strong background in Software Testing. They will search for interesting clients in the Netherlands, but also in the rest of western Europe.
Where do we work? Mainly we work from our office in Kenya. On special occasions you might be required to go to the clients office for a short period of time, but this is not standard. Off course the people from the Dutch company we work with will take you under their wings during the entire time you are abroad.
What are our goals? We intend to grow, not only in numbers but also in services that we can provide and in clients/locations. We also want to improve the quality of software development in Kenya. We would like to work with Universities and other types of institutions that have IT related programs in order to prepare future software testers.
Why Kenya? First of all because one of the owners fell in love with Kenya. Also , despite the distance, the Dutch and Kenyans have a lot of similarities. Example: We have the same working ethics, a great sense of humor, open and direct. We both strive for success and are willing to take some extra steps for it.
