Working on WKT Association Statue.

After four hours of brainstorming, the draft of WKT statue has been completed by the Initiative Work Group, of which MPlab is a proud member.
All details of the statue will have been finished within the next few weeks. Thus, we are hoping to hold a meeting at the end of March 2008, to accept the statue and finally start registration procedures.
As a result, the first IT Companies Cluster in the Wielkopolska region will official come into existence. We are very proud and glad to be able to co-found the initiative in our region.

MPlab with WTK Work Group

At the WTK (Wielkopolski Klaster Teleinformatyczny) conference yesterday, the Work Group was appointed to coordinate its current activities. An association was accepted as the legal solution for the WKT. At the moment the Work Group is working on the final draft of the statute of the association and seeing to registration procedures.
MPlab supports the idea of tele-computer cluster and so we have immediately joined the Work Group. Together with the biggest IT companies from Wielkopolska region, we have started working on the formal aspects of the enterprise.
We do hope that not only the WKT companies but also to the whole region will benefit from this initiative, placing Wielkopolska firmly on the IT map in Poland.
We are keeping our fingers crossed!:)

MPlab and IBM

We are pleased to inform that MPlab has become an IBM Business Partner. The cooperation with IBM, world wide leader in the most advanced IT technology, is not only a great honour for us but also an incentive to constantly develop the quality of our service.

The make-over

It goes without saying that any success is a direct result of effective teamwork. The famous proverb 'two heads are better than one' is very true but every head needs space. Following this principle we have rearranged the office to create separate workplaces. Now every MPlab worker may say 'this is my working space'.
Additionally, we have brightened up the office space with plants which do not only make it more cosy but also improve the quality of the air. What is more, we have changed the lighting design,  essential for proper concentration, to make those long hours spent at a desk as comfortable and not tiring for the sight as possible. To limit the noise, we also made sure office equipment is placed accordingly. Making the redecoration decisions, we have followed the rules of Feng shui.

MPlab and Wincor Nixdorf

We are proud to inform that MPlab has become an authorized partner of Wincor Nixdorf – a global IT company which offers IT technology and services to banks, retail companies, hotels, catering companies, sports structures, gas stations and public transport.
We hope that our cooperation with a company which has 25 years of market experience will help us further meet the expectations and needs of our costumers.
