Who We Are
Virtual Partners was established in 2005, as an advisory firm providing information systems expertise across those industries and sectors using logistics and supply chain management services. The impact of technological advances, especially the various strands of artificial intelligence (GAI, ML and others) will disrupt or destroy many of the established business models. This is happening across multiple sectors and will fundamentally change the arena in which we operate.
We expect this will have consequences for the type services we are providing and how they are delivered. As a result, we are reconsidering our proposition and focus and will share the outcome in due course. Meanwhile, we continue to serve our existing clients and their ongoing projects.
