Business Start-up ★ IT Infrastructure ★ Asset Finance ★ Telephony and Data networksMeliora consulting started off as an agent for Konica Minolta copiers and printers and was first called Advanced Network Solutions (ANS). ANS grew with customer trends and requirements which saw it quickly moving in to the VoIP and telephony market. In 2010 ANS started moving into fixed line connectivity by partnering with multiple upstream providers. To bridge the gap in the market and provide consulting services, ANS was rebranded as Meliora Consulting. Meliora started offering audits on companies on their infrastructure and advised on best practice and alignment of budget to various technologies from Office Automation to connectivity, communications, security and cloud strategies. Meliora saw good growth and included offerings to well known national and international companies. I entered negotiations with multiple parties to acquire funding for a new business that I wanted to start, which resulted in Meliora being sold to Konica Minolta Direct.
