Microimage goes global under brands MiHCM and Futura

• Move coincides with 27 year celebrations of delivering innovative digital solutions across APAC region through subsidiaries

Microimage recently celebrated its 27th anniversary of delivering innovative digital solutions across the Asia-Pacific region through its subsidiaries, MiHCM and Futura Tech Labs. 

The company has had an exciting journey since its inception and today, Microimage is an internationally recognised digital solution provider of Human Capital Management (HCM), mobile, media broadcasting, and entertainment solutions. 

“After 27 years since our humble founding as a high school start-up in the mid-’90s, we’ve rebranded our core businesses under MiHCM and Futura Tech Labs. Microimage is now the holding company for our respective domain-focused subsidiaries. We as a company transitioned and reinvented during different technology shifts since our founding in 1995,” said Microimage Holdings Chairman Harsha Purasinghe.

In the company’s long journey, Microimage has pioneered many ground-breaking solutions and initially began with a language software product. 

Others include launching a complete Sinhala and Tamil software suite under the brands “Helawadana” and “Arichchuwadu” and building a Sinhala Unicode keyboard driver for Microsoft Windows back in 2003, the first-ever global framework for local languages such as Sinhala, Tamil, and South Indian languages for feature phones between 2004 and 2006, the world’s first GSM-based emergency warning system deployed at Sri Lanka’s Disaster Management Centre and Asia’s first ever comprehensive radio automation solution, powering radio networks in the Asia Pacific region.

In 2000, the company ventured into HR solutions, creating the first web-based human resource information system (eHRIS) in Sri Lanka. Then in 2014, the company boldly decided to transform the legacy HR system into a unified digital HCM platform. After a three-year journey, MiHCM Cloud was unveiled in 2017.

Since then, the company has rapidly grown, and today, it has evolved as a digital HR Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution that is run on the Microsoft Azure Cloud platform at scale. MiHCM is used by over 500 companies with over 200,000 users with the help of MiHCM’s extensive partner portfolio and global offices in Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Australia, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. 

Microimage’s 27-year journey has seen rapid growth and global expansion in the usage of HCM and media broadcasting solutions since the company reinvented itself to deliver digital products in 2017. The company aims to continuously build innovative and impactful solutions in its chosen domains by harnessing the power of technology, to impact the world positively.
