OTTAWA, CANADA, June 3, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- For the second year in a row, Kivuto Solutions Inc., the world's leading provider of hosted, flexible and scalable solutions for complex digital distribution requirements, has been recognized for its continuing support of the International Talent Acquisition Centre (In-TAC), an Ottawa-based organization that connects internationally-trained IT professionals with local employers. Kivuto received the prestigious Donor of the Year award at In-TAC's 5th Annual Appreciation Gala.
"I know I speak for the entire team at Kivuto when I say that it's an honor to be recognized by In-TAC for our ongoing support of their efforts to link talented individuals with Ottawa employers," said Ram Raju, President and CEO of Kivuto Solutions. "Our team includes many people who have been trained outside of Canada and have been hired through In-TAC programs. They are a key to our success because of the cross-cultural expertise and language skills they bring to the table that have helped Kivuto bridge cultural gaps and expand into global markets. We look forward to continuing to support In-TAC in its efforts in this area."
The Donor of the Year Award was presented at In-TAC's 5th Annual Gala on May 2. Local business leaders, community stakeholders, government representatives and newcomer graduates of In-TAC's programs, gathered at the National Arts Center in Ottawa to celebrate another year of successful partnerships and collaborations. The gala recognized the success of the talented internationally educated professionals (IEPs) who are now actively engaged in the Canadian workforce. It also provided an opportunity to acknowledge In-TAC's over 400 employer partners who recognize top talent and know that diversity and inclusiveness offer tangible business benefits. In-TAC also recognized community stakeholder partners who, through their generous funding and support allow the organization to offer a comprehensive range of employment services.
In 2013 Kivuto President Ram Raju received the In-TAC IMPACT Award for his continuing support of In-TAC's efforts through Kivuto's proactive hiring practices. In 2012 alone, Kivuto hired 16 graduates of In-TAC's employment programs.
