While working in various IT firms Ozair Yasin dreamed of leveraging IT to change how people work and make a real impact. He realized the problems caused by the lack of a qualified workforce in secure workflows. He believed in the need to utilize human resources by freeing up capacity and in ultimate delivery to stakeholders.
Anchoring with Fahmida, who was in computer education then, they discovered a shared vision of capitalizing on technology to address real-world problems. With vision of changing the future and nature of data processing work, in 1994, Ozair Yasin and Fahmida Ozair co-founded SoftAge, which was later registered in the year 2000.
