Our Story

Our Scrums.com (formerly SovTech) Story

At Scrums.com, we believe the future of software lies in the talent, innovation, and creativity found on the African continent. For over a decade, we have been pioneering world-class software development for a global audience.

We believe in the future of African tech talent and the impact it will have on scaling global companies.
