At 7ft tall, Mayan Mathen is easy to spot in a crowd. It also means strangers find him a bit of a novelty and he says he’s often asked to be in pictures with tourists, rather than take pictures of them, when he’s travelling.
Mathen was at a student at the University of the Witwatersrand when he got his first taste of IT. “I was more interested in the IT department than going to classes.”
The Computer Society of South Africa (CSSA), in partnership with leading IT publishers, academic and research institutions, every year recognises outstanding talent, leadership, vision and commitment of individuals and organisations within the ICT industry. Convergence Partners is proud to note that Mayan Mathen, Dimension Data CTO, has been nominated for the CSSA Visionary CIO 2011 award.
