About us

The Mauritius IT Industry Association (MITIA) was founded by leading industry members and have today grown to encompass the majority off all well established and reputed IT companies in Mauritius.

Our members are all Mauritian based companies or in a few cases the local presence of international companies, but in all cases companies which employs primarily Mauritian people, and have Mauritius as part of their active business territory.

We have all a profound interest in the development of Mauritius, its people and future success and we realize the importance of the maintenance of a constant growth and quality of this sector.

The MITIA appreciates the active interest which the Government takes in developing the IT Industry as well as the interest in furthering the support for export from and development of our sector.
