Microsoft and Estarta Solutions

The leading Jordanian IT company Estarta Solutions is an international and regional IT solutions company with delivery headquarters in Jordan, and sales headquarters in Dubai as well as offices in Boston, Doha, Dubai, Riyadh and Jeddah. After a successful merger between ONEWORLD and Zeine Technological Applications, Estarta Solutions emerged as a key player with a focus on delivering solutions to three market sectors: e-government, telecommunications and banking.

Partially owned by Microsoft, Estarta Solutions is steadily moving forward to become the leading regional IT solutions innovator by offering top notch integration, infrastructure, and enterprise management solutions in the public, financial, and telecommunications sectors. Powered by fourteen years of global experience, the company client base extends from the US to Europe and the Middle East. As part of its adopted strategy, the company is composed of highly talented and skilled teams of business and technical professionals and as such, Estarta is a key provider of comprehensive IT solutions.

Microsoft and Estara Solutions continued to aid the e-government and e-learning transformations taking place in Jordan by signing an agreement, under which the two will set up a “Microsoft Centre for Public Sector Programmes. The centre will produce copyrighted advanced solutions and design software to be marketed to countries working on e-government projects.

Microsoft's investments in the Kingdom are not limited to its share in Estarta. The IT giant is also a partner in Jordan Education Initiative (JEI), which was launched at the WEF meeting at the Dead Sea in 2003. Microsoft is also involved in the Kingdom's e-government project and finances the training of 20 students from Jordanian universities in public agencies.


The agreement’s signing only increases the growth potential of the Jordanian Information Technology industry, which has been of interest to many US based companies. Jordan based IT companies have sought to develop their partnership with major IT companies in the US with the aim of expanding investment in the sector to reach $1 billion a year. A precursor to this is the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) between the Ministry of Information and Communications Technology and the American information technology giant Cisco Systems.
